"I see tremendous opportunities at Moore to leverage the company's size and relationships with its current suppliers in order to generate costs savings. I look forward to joining the management team at Moore and to rolling up my sleeves and getting actively involved, on a day-to-day basis, in reshaping the company's procurement and logistics activities."
