The company said it is working to expand its presence in key vertical markets.

TRUMBAUERSVILLE, Pa.—Contract manufacturer Bracalente Manufacturing Group (BMG) issued a release stating that it had recruited Chris Lampitoc to lead its global sales and marketing team, just months after acquiring Millennium Manufacturing Group last year.

Lampitoc began his career at Triumph Group. Working within the Mechanical Solutions division, he managed the non-aerospace and aerospace aftermarket programs and ended his tenure as the director of sales and marketing at Triumph Controls. He was then hired at Greene Tweed, where he managed the company’s global aerospace sales organization.

Later, he assumed a product line director role, which spanned aerospace and defense, semiconductor, energy, industrial, and life sciences. His commitment to process and cross-functional development helped leverage the product portfolio and grow the overall business, according to the release.

Lampitoc’s background is well-suited to position Bracalente’s next generation of manufacturing solutions, aligning with the manufacturer’s core competencies and core values, the company said.

“Chris is an integral part of our growth model and our culture,” said Ron Bracalente, president and CEO of Bracalente Manufacturing Group, in the release. “The world is changing and manufacturing is increasingly competitive. Our business model allows us to flex to accommodate our clients’ needs.”

Bracalente Manufacturing Group provides precision manufacturing, supply chain, and logistics services to numerous global markets that span aerospace and defense, tactical, agriculture, industrial, medical, oil and gas, automotive, electronics, and recreational. Bracalente Manufacturing’s s quality management system is registered to the AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 standards, applicable to contract precision machining and assemblies, according to the company’s website.

“We continue to lead in our markets with exceptional quality, value, and a dedicated, integrity-driven team,” Bracalente continued. “Chris’s expertise in sales and marketing, along with his process-oriented initiatives, are strong pathways for us to build upon.”

Bracalente Manufacturing has invested heavily in equipment, training, and people over the last several years, according to the release. The company added three senior executive women to the leadership team and increased its global manufacturing footprint to 226,000 square feet with the purchase of Millennium Manufacturing in late summer of 2023.

“Bracalente has a strong reputation in their key markets,” Lampitoc said in the release. “Ron (Bracalente) is known for his investment in the company, and the people, and has an unwavering commitment to the manufacturing industry. I’m excited to work alongside our innovative group of engineers, sales professionals, skilled tradespeople, and leadership team to help propel Bracalente’s growth and expand our market penetration.”
