Jeff Euston Email & Phone Number

With over 23 years of experience in food and beverage manufacturing, I'm passionate about helping small to midsize CPG companies find operational success in a variety of ways. So I founded SwoleOps to share my wealth of knowledge with brands that need to grow, change, or simply improve their systems or processes to fuel results. If you're struggling to figure out what you need to execute your vision or just don't have the resources, that's where I can help! SwoleOps specializes in:- fractional COO leadership - creating your ops strategy to successfully grow or rightsize your company- vendor management and/or helping finding contract manufacturers/3PLs - coaching/mentoring your operations team- help commercializing new product lines - ERP pre-implementation or redeployment (systems and processes)- hosting a workshop to solve a problem with lean manufacturing or six sigma toolsI have a wide breadth of experience ranging from the biggest beverage company with fully automated facilities, to an all co-man business model at a younger company, and all the way down to a pre-launch start-up. I've successfully led teams through the outsourcing and shutting down of a manufacturing plant (done the right way for employees), a successful rebranding without any service/product disruptions, helped install a management operating system suited to the company, facilitated a re-implementation of an ERP , and even led a variety of process improvement projects over two years that improved efficiencies, removed excess labor (24%), and improved COGS ($1.2MM). And as a formally trained black belt and in lean manufacturing, I've learned how to practically use these tools in the workplace at the right times to achieve results. Before venturing out to help other companies, I most recently was the COO at Jot Labs, leading two different build outs of the production facility as we vertically integrated to improve quality and costs.

Listed skills include Continuous Improvement, Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, Manufacturing, and 20 others.
