RECOGNIZING AND HONORING JOSEPH SIVEWRIGHT
______
HON. ANN WAGNER
of missouri
in the house of representatives
Friday, July 30, 2021
Mrs. WAGNER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and honor the incredible work and service of Joseph Sivewright. At the end of 2021, he will officially retire as the Chairman of Nestle Purina PetCare after over 30 years of outstanding leadership.
Since joining Nestle Purina in 1985, Mr. Sivewright has held various positions throughout the company as he proved himself to be a treasured employee. Prior to his role as Chairman, he was appointed as the company's President & Chief Operating Officer and was then named President and Chief Executive Officer.
Under Mr. Sivewright's leadership, Nestle Purina has grown through numerous product innovations and the company has been recognized as one of the ``best places to work'' by several St. Louis and national organizations.
I want to personally thank Joe for his many years of friendship, as well as his desire to ensure Nestle Purina is a strong community partner. His distinguished career and tremendous leadership are celebrated by our St. Louis community. I personally appreciate the impact his work ethic and constant drive to improve the lives of those around had on his employees. As a former Purina employee myself when I was just out of college, I know how important it is to have a smart and driven leader at the helm to set the tone for the rest of us and help us achieve even greater heights.
Joe had a tremendous impact not only on all of those with whom he worked throughout his many years at Purina, but also on those he worked with outside of work as a dedicated member of our St. Louis community. We all appreciate everything he has done so far, and look forward to seeing what else he will accomplish in the coming years.
