About John Kelly

I have always believed in working for organizations that help people lead a healthier lifestyle. Whether it be nutritional supplements, pharmaceuticals or OTC drugs - helping people live longer and healthier lifestyles can be achieved through biotech innovation. With this rising cost of healthcare, this becomes increasingly important. I am truly proud of the long-term partnerships (and many friendships) I have helped create over the years with leaders at some of the best start-ups, disruptors and learning brands. I credit that to the ability to listen to my customers and ensure they know that they have a champion (or team of champions) on the other side truly aiming for their success. In my role as Chief Commercial Officer New Vision Pharmaceuticals, I apply my years of experience in contract development and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals and consumer packaged goods to drive sales, marketing, product development and customer service. I lead with trust and transparency to build strong partnerships which lead to success. New Vision Pharmaceuticals is a full-service, FDA-registered contract development and manufacturing company that provides innovative solutions through blow-fill-seal (BFS), fill-seal (FS) and traditional packaging for liquid and semi-solid products in a breadth of industries, including pharmaceutical, diagnostic reagents, health, wellness and a multitude of other applications for local and global retail markets. We work directly with clients as a true partner to deliver tailor-made products for their individual applications, providing peace of mind through excellence in quality, reliability and service.AREAS OF EXPERTISE: National Account Management | Sales Strategies | E-Commerce | Strategic Planning | Customer Service | Product Development | Packaging | Product Development | Supply Chain Management | Efficiency Optimization | P&L Management | Budgeting and Forecasting | Financial Reporting
