To drive expansion and meet growing customer demand for high-quality industrial cleaning chemicals across sectors such as Food & Beverage, Laundry, Pulp & Paper, Parts Manufacturing, and more, ChemStation welcomes Kenneth Blewett as Chief Operating Officer! Focused on expanding our network of 60+ Manufacturing Centers throughout North America, Blewett brings a wealth of leadership experience in strategy and operations across CPG, retail, and last-mile logistics sectors. He will oversee ChemStation’s manufacturing centers, product development, engineering, supply chain, people operations, and go-to-market strategy.
Blewett has a proven track record of both developing strategy and executing successful business growth. Prior to joining ChemStation, Blewett led DoorDash’s rapid growth in white-label last-mile delivery for the retail and auto aftermarket sectors and was Head of Strategy and Business Operations for Rapid Medical, a fast-growth startup focused on last-mile logistics for the medical industry. Blewett also spent several years at Procter & Gamble as a marketing executive where he spearheaded a turnaround of the Crest and Oral-B’s Pro-Health global toothpaste and mouthwash business and led new product development efforts. He began his career in the U.S. Army where he served as a reconnaissance platoon leader in the 2nd Infantry Division leading more than 500 combat missions in Iraq where he was awarded the Bronze Star and Combat Action Badge.
In his new role, Blewett will focus on three key strategic priorities: accelerating sales at company-owned manufacturing centers, collaborating with ChemStation owners to better serve their evolving needs, and partnering with R&D, manufacturing, and engineering teams to accelerate the pace of innovation. Blewett is excited to help usher in ChemStation’s next phase of continued growth.
