Background

About Jim McMurray

I have over 40 years of experience selling corrugated products and managing sales forces that covered both industrial & consumer markets in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, & Western Ontario. My initial sales experience with PCA included both industrial & consumer accounts in eastern Michigan, while my sales management experience with International Paper involved transitioning that facility’s mix away from high volume consumers goods business into more profitable, locally controlled, large format, automotive, industrial & produce markets. Following IP’s acquisition of Weyerhaeuser, I joined Temple-Inland in Crawfordsville, Indiana. This plant’s focus was exceptionally high volume food and beverage accounts. Following IP’s acquisition of Temple-Inland, I returned to Michigan & for the next five years marketed sheets for Georgia-Pacific's Albion, Michigan plant to target accounts over a large, multiple state territory. I joined Victory Packaging in March 2018 & am having a blast managing sales for our Cleveland, Ohio & Livonia, Michigan branches. We are a product neutral company that offers creative design solutions, & packaging products & services for a wide variety of industries. Specialties: Market, territory, and account sales, price, & margin analysis. Professional development of direct reports.
