ITW FEG Taps Mihyar Mohamed To Helm Vulcan

Mihyar Mohamed has been appointed by ITW Food Equipment Group as Vice President and General Manager of North American Cooking. As of June 1, he will be responsible for the Vulcan and Wolf product portfolio. Mohamed was named to the post after Tim Murray’s election to retire at the end of May as the Vice President and General Manager of Vulcan Foodservice.

Mohamed joined ITW FEG in 2014 as v.p.-Strategic Marketing & Global Accounts and most recently held the position of VP/GM of Vulcan Chain and Baxter/Retail. Prior to ITW, Mohamed was director of strategic marketing at SPX Corporation, a management consultant with McKinsey & Co., and in key management roles at Hussmann.

“Mihyar has proven he has the skillset, drive, and experience to take the Vulcan business to the next level,” said Paul Sternlieb, Group President-Global Cooking for ITW Food Equipment Group. “Thanks to Tim’s 39 years as a very strong leader and significant contributor, the company has a solid foundation and is in the right position for continued profitable growth.”

Murray added, “I’m incredibly proud of where Vulcan is today and the tremendous team we have in place. By focusing on what matters most, we’ve seen positive growth in our product portfolio and our reputation as a leader in the industry. I have no doubt that Mihyar will continue to successfully drive the company forward to new and exciting opportunities.”
