ST. LOUIS (July 13, 2023) –The Doe Run Company (Doe Run) has hired industry veteran Carlos Henriques as director of sales and marketing. In his new position, Henriques will guide the company’s commercial efforts as it delivers premium mineral concentrates and metal products to customers across the globe.

Henriques brings nearly three decades of sales, marketing, business development and supply chain experience to Doe Run, focused primarily on the metals, mining, automotive, and manufacturing industries in the U.S., Latin America and Europe.

“Carlos’ deep experience in the global market aligns well with our customer base,” said Lou Magdits, vice president – sales and marketing at Doe Run. “As the globe competes to bring forth new green energy sources, our lead, copper, and zinc products will be in high demand.

It is an exciting time to be working for Doe Run.”
