Chris Klotzbier

Chris is a third-generation member of his family business, originally founded in 1968 by his maternal grandfather, a Greek entrepreneur who immigrated to the United States in the late 1950’s. 

DAMCO, Inc., having started as a metal fabrication company early on to serve Massachusetts’ emerging high-tech industry, the family business adapted to changes in the manufacturing industry and took part in the metal-to-plastics conversion, officially becoming Plastic Molding MFG., which is now the family’s core business. With manufacturing facilities in four states across the U.S., the company's growth has been a result of both organic expansion and the acquisition of six companies over the past twelve years. In addition to industrial manufacturing, the family’s overall portfolio of companies also includes real estate development and management, food importing, production and processing, and industrial distribution. 

After graduating from the D'Amore-McKim School of Business at Northeastern University with a BS in Business Administration, Chris joined the family business and has served in various roles including Sales & Marketing, Operations, Corporate Development, M&A, and Strategic Planning.

While attending the F.W. Olin Graduate School of Business for an MBA, Chris has participated in the NextGen FEL program, attended numerous events at BIFE, and currently is the ’23-‘24 graduate representative for BIFE’s Student Advisory Forum.
