As CEO of Morrison Container Handling Solutions in Glenwood, Nancy Wilson has created a national sales force, expanded operations to a second manufacturing facility in Glenwood, and doubled the company’s workforce, resulting in more than 70 percent sales growth since 2012.
Over the past year, Wilson has invested in IT to drive internal process efficiencies and has implemented VR and AR technologies that enable remote factory acceptance tests and in-field diagnostics.
