"Jen brings a wealth of experience and we're fortunate to have her join Royal Canin to lead our U.S. veterinary business," said Daryn Brown, regional president of Royal Canin North America. "Her deep expertise in elevating brands lends itself naturally to supporting this critical piece of our business and we know our veterinary partners will appreciate her extensive knowledge and creative approach to serving more cats and dogs through expanding access to therapeutic nutrition for pets with unique needs. Her commitment to our purpose — a better world for pets — is already evident in every decision and she is a fantastic addition to the team."
In her new role, Cullen will be responsible for growing the Royal Canin U.S. veterinary business through enhanced relationships with veterinary partners and the introduction of new product innovations.
"Finding a purpose-driven business whose values so closely align with my own is incredibly rewarding and I am honored to lead the Royal Canin U.S. Veterinary Business Unit while leveraging my health background in a new way," Cullen said. "The responsibility to help feed more cats and dogs the precise nutrition they deserve is one I take very seriously and I'm confident we will partner even closer with veterinarians and veterinary clinics to support the pets we all love."
