Terence Fitch is a seasoned corporate executive with 23 years of marketing, sales and media experience. Mr. Fitch founded Drink Teck, LLC in 2013 and has served as its Chief Executive Officer since that time. Prior to Drink Teck, Mr. Fitch spent 21 years at Coca-Cola Enterprises, where, from 2004 to 2013, he served as the Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Western Region. During this time he was responsible for a team of 13,500 sales, strategy, marketing, operations, manufacturing, supply chain and analytical professionals and accountable for over $4.2 billion in sales.
