P&G appoints Gabriele Pacchiarotti as the new plant manager of the Pomezia and Gattatico sites

P&G has announced the appointment of Gabriele Pacchiarotti (senior director) as the new plant manager of the production sites in Pomezia (Rome) and Gattatico (Reggio Emilia).

Pacchiarotti takes up the role after serving from 2022 to 2026 as plant manager of the P&G plant in Lima, in the United States. He replaces Marco Minghelli (senior director), who is moving to the United States to take responsibility as plant manager of the Greensboro production site (North Carolina).

A solid experience at P&G

At P&G since 2004, Gabriele Pacchiarotti (48 years old, from Rome, married, with two children) has built an international career path in product supply and manufacturing, gaining experience at six sites in four countries: Italy, Romania, Russia and the United States. After graduating in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Rome Tor Vergata, he began his career at the P&G plant in Pomezia, first as a "process engineer" and subsequently as a "department manager", working on improvement programmes in the fabric care products area.

Over the years, he has held positions of increasing responsibility in the management of production sites and the supply chain. After his experience in Romania, leading the Quality and Iws programmes at the Timisoara site, he worked in Russia (in Novomoskovsk) as operations director in the fabric care division and in the United States (in Alexandria) as operations director of the laundry capsules business, before returning to Russia, to Novomoskovsk, to lead the P&G plant, the largest in Eastern Europe, from 2019 to 2022, and from 2022 to July 2026 in the United States, in Lima, taking charge of the largest P&G production site globally, with more than 1.100 employees and several operations dedicated to fabric care products.

The new role therefore marks for Pacchiarotti a return to Italy and, in particular, to Pomezia, where he took the first steps in his career at P&G more than twenty years ago. At the helm of the two Italian production hubs, he will bring the experience he has gained managing complex organisations, with responsibility for safety, quality, production, costs, service and people development.

The comment

"Returning to Italy to take responsibility for the Pomezia and Gattatico sites is a great source of pride for me. The Pomezia plant has a special significance for me: this is where my career at P&G began, and being able to return there today, together with responsibility for Gattatico, a historic site for P&G, represents a challenge that I embrace with enthusiasm and a sense of responsibility. Working on iconic brands such as Dash, Mastro Lindo and Viakal is truly a privilege. I would like to thank Marco Minghelli for the work he has done leading the two plants and for the contribution he leaves to the Pomezia and Gattatico organisations. My commitment will be to work alongside the people at the two sites, enhancing their skills and professionalism and continuing to put safety, quality, reliability and the ability to innovate at the centre," declares Gabriele Pacchiarotti, plant director of the P&G plants in Pomezia and Gattatico.
