From a small town in New Zealand to one of the global leaders in packaging, Xin She’s path to Amcor’s President of Greater China has evolved from his unwavering belief in the value and potential of packaging. Xin is now in a position where he can leverage innovation opportunities with Amcor products and in the markets they feature in. And he plans to do just that.
After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering in China, Xin migrated to New Zealand, where he completed a master’s degree. Joining dairy cooperative powerhouse Fonterra, Xin spent eight years with the company in Timaru, in the South Island, working his way up in different roles. In 2001, Xin was approached by Tetra Pak in China, where he returned and started what would become a 17-year journey with the firm.
“In my last two years with Tetra Pak, I was in charge of Industry 4.0, which handled smart packaging and processing,” Xin recalls. “It’s an exciting field.” With a wealth of experience behind him, Xin joined Amcor China in 2018 as the President of Greater China.
“Amcor China is very different from Fonterra and Tetra Pak, which both have to dominate market shares,” Xin explains. “When I was at Tetra Pak, we had such a high market share that there was nowhere to grow. I knew coming to Amcor would be a different game with many challenges, so I’ve found it very exciting.”
