Kevin Roepke, U.S. Grains Council (USGC) regional director of South and Southeast Asia, will depart the Council in August to join the U.S. Soybean Export Council (USSEC) as the regional director for the Americas, based in Guadalajara, Mexico. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cKevin\u2019s excellent insights into markets and strong background in trade made him a valued member of our international staff,\u201d said Cary Sifferath, USGC senior director of global programs. \u201cHe helped enhance the Council\u2019s overall global market development programs in a highly competitive marketplace.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Roepke joined the Council in 2011 as the manager of global trade before becoming the director of trade development in the USGC China office in January 2014. Later that year, he was promoted to his current position as the regional director of South and Southeast Asia, based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. <\/span><\/p>\n

In this position, Roepke identified and addressed trade, technical and policy factors relevant to building and maintaining the market for U.S. feed grains and co-products. <\/span><\/p>\n
