Husky Technologies Announces Leadership Transition: Bradley Selleck Appointed CEO, John Galt to Become Chairman

Husky TechnologiesTM, a pioneering technology provider enabling the delivery of essential needs to the global community, announced that longtime company CEO John Galt will transition to the role of chairman and Husky COO Bradley Selleck will become CEO, effective October 1.

Husky, a portfolio company of Platinum Equity, is a leading global provider of innovative solutions and services primarily for the beverage, consumer goods and medical device markets.

The transition is the culmination of a carefully orchestrated plan focused on building a world-class management team, fostering and embracing their capabilities, and optimizing the company’s human capital as it enters the next chapter. It is a calculated step that not only positions Husky for future growth, but also ensures continuity and stability through the transition.

“John has been preparing the company for this for several years and I commend him and the team for taking such a thoughtful and deliberate approach,” said Louis Samson, co-president of Platinum Equity. “Brad is a uniquely talented executive and key architect of the company’s current operating model. He has made a material and multi-faceted contribution to Husky since joining approximately three years ago and has proven beyond any doubt that he’s up to the task and ready to take the reins.”

Galt joined Husky in 1985 and was appointed CEO in 2005. For nearly four decades he has played a pivotal role growing the business from its early days as a founder-led creative enterprise into a global industrial leader. 

Over the past several years Galt has worked with Selleck and the company’s management team to enhance Husky’s go-to-market capabilities and deepen its focus on essential markets and the aftermarket. Under Galt’s guidance, Husky also took a more active role in advocacy, setting industry standards and influencing sustainability policies worldwide.

“Leading Husky has been one of the greatest honors of my career,” said Galt. “Over the last 19 years as CEO, I have seen this company evolve into a global leader, driven by our relentless pursuit of innovation and our commitment to making a positive impact on the world.”

Galt said Selleck’s appointment reflects Husky’s continued commitment to its strategic priorities, ensuring continuity while positioning the company for future growth.

“Since joining Husky, Brad has been instrumental in this journey, particularly in establishing a more resilient and industrialized operational model that sustained Husky through the challenges of the COVID crisis, but also by garnering the respect of Husky’s key constituents from the boardroom to the shop floor,” Galt explained. “I have complete confidence in Brad’s leadership and am excited to see him drive Husky forward as CEO.”

Selleck joined Husky in 2022 with more than 25 years of leadership experience in operations, supply chain and quality as an executive for largescale global industrial organizations. As CEO, he will continue to focus on executing Husky’s strategic priorities, emphasizing profitable growth, sustainability, innovation, and customer success.

“I am thrilled to take on the role of CEO,” said Selleck. “Husky’s commitment to sustainability and innovation aligns perfectly with my own values, and I am excited to lead our incredible team as we continue to build on the solid foundation that John has established. I look forward to driving our strategy forward focused on delivering profitable growth by providing tangible value to our customers.”

Galt remains a meaningful shareholder in Husky going forward. In his role as chairman, he will continue to serve as an outspoken advocate for advancing sustainability practices across the industry. He will also be available to the leadership team to assist with customer and investor relations, as well as advanced product development.

“We have very high standards for leadership and John’s competitive spirit, passion for Husky and commitment to excellence are the benchmark,” said Samson. “He has been a special CEO and I am grateful we will continue to be able to count on him as a partner.”

Developing a strong team to carry out the company’s vision is an enduring part of Galt’s legacy.

“John has been a transformative figure at Husky, driving the company to new heights and laying the foundation for the road ahead,” said Delara Zarrabi, managing director at Platinum Equity. “He worked tirelessly to build high-performing teams that embody Husky’s core values and he’s fostered a culture where people are driven to be the best in the industry. Brad is well prepared to carry on that tradition and we look forward to partnering with him on the next phase of Husky’s journey.”
