Lux Global Label Company has announced a series of leadership additions, including naming Todd Kennedy as chief executive officer and a member of the Board of Directors. The company also announced that two labeling and printing industry veterans, Robert (Bob) Coleman and John Wurzburger, have been named to the company’s Board of Directors.
Lux Global Label is the newly formed holding company that purchased certain assets from National Label, a 103-year-old global leader in the labeling industry. The establishment of Lux Global Label was announced by Resilience Capital Partners, a private equity firm, on April 28, 2017.
Prior to being named CEO of Lux Global Label, Kennedy served as chief operating officer of The Kennedy Group, a producer of labeling solutions. The company provides solutions to label, package, brand, promote, identify and track a wide array of products throughout supply chains around the globe. The Kennedy Group serves a variety of industries, including consumer products, food, beverage, material handling, manufacturing, automotive and household chemicals, as well as media and promotions companies. The Kennedy Group also is a co-investor in Lux Global Label with Resilience Capital Partners and LBC Credit Partners.
“There is tremendous opportunity for Lux Global Label, a recognized innovator in the labeling and printing industry with an unmatched, 103-year history of serving customers around the globe,” says Kennedy.
With the addition of Coleman and Wurzburger, both former Avery Dennison executives, Lux Global Label now has a six-member Board of Directors.
“These leadership additions demonstrate that we are already ahead of plan and, within 60 days, have completed operational improvement initiatives that will enable Lux Global Label to build upon a century of excellence in the labeling industry,” says Steven H. Rosen, co-chief executive officer, Resilience Capital Partners and a member of Lux Global Label’s Board.
Coleman has a distinguished career in the labeling and printing industry spanning three decades, including two-and-a-half decades with Avery Dennison. At Avery Dennison, he served as vice president/general manager of Avery Dennison Graphics North America, where he turned around its $110 million business. After leaving Avery Dennison in 2002, he went on to serve as president, Decorative Products, Omnova Solutions Inc., where he led a $320 million business line.

Wurzburger formerly served as vice president and general manager of Avery Dennison Fasson Roll North America and as vice president and general manager, Latin America, for Avery Dennison. He currently serves as president and CEO of The Waddington Group, a global leader in packaging, serving the food service, bakery, deli, produce and confectionary markets. It is a division of Newell Brands.
