For the past 20 years, Billy Hoover has worked in international sales for Southern Champion Tray, a Chattanooga-based paperboard packaging manufacturer that produces environmentally friendly disposables, ranging from the food service and bakery industry to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. His focus has been to grow the business in key foreign markets by working through importers and distributors in the countries to which the company exports and to foster long term, strategic partnerships with each.
