After three decades, Anwer Hussain, senior vice president, Lubricants at CHS, will retire effective Nov. 1, 2012.

“Anwer has made lasting contributions to CHS throughout his career, including leading a very profitable and successful business within Energy and building it through acquisitions and core growth,” says Jay Debertin, executive vice president and chief operating officer, Energy and Foods. “His commitment to quality has strengthened our Cenex brand lubricants customer loyalty. He has grown our private label business, helping to maximize our manufacturing capability by serving other lubricants companies.”

Anwer joined the organization as a lubricants chemist in 1975 and assumed the role of senior vice president, Lubricants, in 2004.

In addition to Anwer’s remarkable career at CHS, he contributed a great deal to advance the professionalism and integrity of the lubricants industry as past president (2007/08) of the Independent Lubricant Manufacturers Association (ILMA), and in his current seat on the ILMA Board.

JobbersWorld wishes Anwer many fine days of rest and relaxation in his retirement and we hope he will always keep that smile. Best wishes!
