LOS ANGELES — Jeff Goh, CEO of private label food manufacturer Two Chefs on a Roll (TCOR), announced his resignation today in order to pursue new opportunities. Since 2001, Goh has served as the CEO of the foremost designer and custom producer of savory and bakery private label food products in the United States.
“I feel very satisfied about where the company stands today, and remain positive about the prospects for its future. At the same time, I have accomplished what I set out to do and now is the right time for me to embark on new challenges.”
Goh has been instrumental in setting and executing growth strategies at TCOR. With a dedication to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace culture, Goh has played a key role in building and motivating a high performing team that has achieved superior results, including expanding the company's manufacturing sites and its customer base. The business has grown 7 times and its profit has increased 15 times in his ten years as CEO. With three prestigious factories in the United States, TCOR boasts a large portfolio of clients on a national level offering exceptional service, an unparalleled speed to market and quality assurance to customers across retail, food service and industrial channels.
As the architect of TCOR's multi-year growth strategy, Goh organized the innovative company to capitalize on its key strengths and position itself for rapid short and long term growth. He led the development of the company's business plan gaining agreement by the organization's Board. Previously privately held since its founding in 1985, the company was acquired by Bakkavor Group in 2008, and since then, the company's business has doubled.
“As CEO, Goh has been a major decision maker in Two Chefs on a Roll's strategy,” said John Dutton, CEO of Bakkavor USA. “He has a high degree of integrity, and is a professional business leader.”
Goh has an impressive track record of building and leading high growth companies (private and public) that consistently exceed customer, employee and shareholder expectations. His experience working with investment bankers and both advisory and statutory boards also includes raising debt and equity funding. He has served as Chairman and CEO of Kawama.com, the first “Total Solution” eCommerce business for the education market; Senior Vice President and Partner at Artal Food Industries, a privately held investment company; General Manager and Managing Director of Frito-Lay in China; and Division Manager at Procter & Gamble in China. He is an active investor in the food business sector, sits on several for-profit and not-for-profit boards and is the President of KJG Enterprises.
Goh is confident that TCOR will continue to grow in his absence. “I have enjoyed my time at Two Chefs, and I am extremely proud of all that our team has accomplished,” he said. “I feel very satisfied about where the company stands today, and remain positive about the prospects for its future. At the same time, I have accomplished what I set out to do and now is the right time for me to embark on new challenges.”
