Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health USA Inc. has appointed Jean Claude Chevez, DVM as the new executive director of the U.S. swine and poultry businesses.

"Health is always top-of-mind for livestock producers, and I am excited to lead the U.S. swine and poultry businesses as we work to deliver innovative animal health solutions to our customers," said Chevez.

Chevez is a 20-year veteran of Boehringer Ingelheim. He has served as associate director of the animal health business for Central America and the Caribbean, leading the pets and livestock businesses, since 2020.

"Jean Claude's long tenure in both the swine and poultry industries provides him a unique understanding of the needs of producers and veterinarians and how Boehringer Ingelheim can best support their efforts to optimize animal health and performance," said Steve Boren, vice president of livestock and equine at Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health USA Inc. "I am confident that this perspective – along with Jean Claude's background as a veterinarian and experience in the global industry – will be beneficial as we continue our commitment to enhancing swine and poultry health."
