Mocon announces food safety chief
Alan Traylor has joined Mocon Inc. as the company’s new business manager of food safety products.
The US-based company moved into the food safety arena last year when it acquired a minority share in Irish firm Luxcel Biosciences.
Traylor has already served at executive level in other global product and technology-oriented companies. He also has an “excellent track record” in marketing and sales, said Mocon.
“We are pleased to announce that Alan will be heading Mocon’s newest business unit,” said company president and CEO Robert Demorest. “His past experience in solving complex bacterial detection issues for the defense and homeland security communities makes him ideally suited to oversee our new food safety product line.”
