Effective January 1, 2016, Jim Jung has been named President of Trico Corporation. He becomes the fourth generation in his family to serve in this role in Trico’s 99-year history.

According to CEO Bob Jung, “Jim brings a strong, participative leadership style that leverages the strengths of other associates and outside resources. He has also had the opportunity to participate, as I did with my father, in a wide range of ‘big picture’ and senior management issues over the years giving him a strong understanding of the overall business. His experiences within the company have run the gamut from strategy development to manufacturing.”

Currently, Jim leads a team that will be launching a series of new products and initiatives in the coming year.
