Perrigo Announces Global Operations and Supply Chain Leadership Transition

Ron Janish, EVP Global Operations and Supply Chain, to Retire

Industry Veteran, Matt Winterman, Appointed EVP Product Supply, Operations Strategy & Transformation Officer

DUBLIN, June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Perrigo Company plc (NYSE: PRGO), a leading global provider of Consumer Self-Care Products, today announced the appointment of Matt Winterman as Executive Vice President, Product Supply, Operations Strategy and Transformation Officer, effective June 23, 2025. Mr. Winterman succeeds Ron Janish, who will retire from the Company on September 30, 2025, following a distinguished career at Perrigo spanning more than two decades. Both executives will closely work together to ensure a smooth transition.

Throughout his tenure, Mr. Janish played an integral role in advancing and aligning the Company's supply chain with its transformation to a consumer self-care leader and steering its Supply Chain Reinvention program, which significantly reduced portfolio complexity and improved forecast accuracy. His leadership was especially impactful during the COVID-19 pandemic, when Perrigo's global facilities remained operational, ensuring continued supply of essential self-care products to consumers and customers.

President and CEO Patrick Lockwood-Taylor commented, "We are deeply grateful to Ron for his more than two decades of outstanding leadership and unwavering commitment to Perrigo. His vision and execution have been instrumental in transforming our global supply chain and ensuring operational resilience, especially during some of the most challenging times in recent history."

Mr. Winterman brings more than 20 years of global supply chain and strategy leadership to Perrigo. Most recently, he served as SVP of Global Supply Chain and Strategy at AstraZeneca, overseeing a $54 billion supply chain across 5,000 SKUs. In this capacity, he was instrumental in driving transformation and strategic investment in the manufacturing network. He also served as Global Head of end-to-end Supply Chain at Roche Holding AG, and prior to that in roles of increasing responsibility for technical operations strategy and supply chain performance at GSK plc. Mr. Winterman graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the University of Bristol.

Lockwood-Taylor concluded, "We are pleased to welcome Matt to Perrigo and our executive leadership team. His expertise will be pivotal in advancing Perrigo's next-generation manufacturing and supply chain capabilities. Matt's leadership will support the execution of our long-term consumer self-care strategy, ensuring operational excellence across a broad portfolio of molecules, dosage forms and price coverage."

"I am honored to join the incredible team at Perrigo," said Mr. Winterman. "I look forward to driving industry-leading initiatives to ensure our supply chain network operates at the highest standards, continuing to consistently and reliably deliver our self-care solutions to consumers and customers every day."
