About Jeremy Couey

I believe strong manufacturing strengthens communities.By investing in people, creating meaningful employment opportunities, and operating with integrity, my goal is to serve customers while contributing to the long‑term health of the region.I’m a manufacturing operator and business owner focused on building high‑performance organizations that deliver precision, reliability, and long‑term value for customers. My background includes North American leadership roles across multi‑site manufacturing and distribution, full P&L ownership, operational turnarounds, and developing teams capable of sustaining excellence at scale.I lead with a systems‑driven approach grounded in team member development, operational discipline, transparent communication, and continuous improvement.Today, I’m applying that experience to growing VRTX Industrial into a trusted, American‑owned manufacturing partner. We combine decades of shop‑floor craftsmanship with modern processes, quality systems, and a culture built around accountability and care. My priorities are simple: deliver consistent, high‑quality work, honor our commitments, and build relationships that last.
