Meet the FloatPac team

Gavin has been with FloatPac for over 15 years.  Gavin started within the business ‘learning the ropes’ of fabrication with Flexitank, before moving into a sales and marketing management role in 2007.

Since then, Gavin has worked tirelessly with the entire FloatPac team to now resides as FloatPac’s Chief Executive Officer, a role he took up in late 2017.

Gavin, in conjunction with John and the rest of the board, over see the day to day operations of all FloatPac related business.  Gavin is also responsible for future proofing the FloatPac business through a variety of measures, including asset and stock management, cash flow management, and future product developments.  Future product developments is especially important as FloatPac looks to continue to diversify its product offerings and grow its market representation in industry that it hasn’t previously been involved in.

Away from FloatPac, Gavin is father to two wonderful (and cheeky) daughters, a very one eyed Geelong Cats supporter (the best team on the planet), an avid American sports viewer, and loves to spend time with family, listen to music (both inside and outside the office!), continue to build our website and online presence, play bass guitar (badly), try and squeeze in some gaming time, and travel whenever time permits.

Having worked in the seafood industry for many years (too many to enumerate), Peter now passes on that experience to FishPac clientele to ensure their commercial success.

Trained as a marine scientist, Peter has worked in government and industry. He has had a long career in commercial aquaculture: abalone, oyster and flatfish.  This culminated in the establishment of a vertically integrated seafood business incorporating an abalone farm, live abalone/lobster export facility and a canning factory.

Joining FloatPac as Research and Business Development Manager in 2013 (mainly for FishPac), Peter has worked with existing and new clients to oversight their live seafood exports, undertake research to improve transport success, increase shipment payloads and to develop transport protocols for species not previously transported live to markets.

Peter has extensive knowledge of the world’s seafood industries that he enthusiastically shares with our clients. He remains very active in industry representation and currently serves on a number of government seafood advisory committees.
