Summary
Don Drummond is a results-driven consultant and former senior executive with 10+ years of focused experience in the chemicals and thermoplastics industries, now advising startups and established manufacturers from his base in Wilmington, Delaware. He has a track record of driving profitable growth by aligning sales, operations and supply chain through rigorous KPI design and order-to-cash optimization, and has led large-scale reorganizations following mergers and acquisitions. As SVP and VP-level leader at Basell, Montell and Himont he built market-segmented go-to-market strategies that prioritized high-value customers and materially improved margins and market share. His hands-on roots—starting a compounding plant and executing large plant-to-customer technology conversions that saved $10M/year—give him uncommon operational credibility for a strategic leader. He combines engineering grounding (BIE) with an MBA in finance to translate technical process advantages into commercial wins. Currently he consults on thermoplastic coatings and polymer applications, blending competitive analysis, prototype trials and business planning to accelerate product commercialization.
