New President for Clysar

Clysar

A company based in Clinton that makes plastic shrink wrap for the packaging industry, has chosen a new leader. Friday Clysar announced the promotion of Vicki Larson to president.

Larson most recently served as executive vice president and general manager, and has worked for Clysar for 30 years. She will also become a member of the board of directors.  

She's held a variety of jobs, including customer service, production planning, sales and marketing, and senior management. 

Founded in 1963, and head-quartered in Clinton, Clysar now has more than 300 employees.
 

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
