Foley, Ala.
Keith Trowbridge, former president of PolyMedica subsidiary Liberty Healthcare Group, has been appointed president and CEO of Respiratory Distributors Inc. (RDI), a specialty distributor of pharmaceuticals and proprietary COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) products. The new RDI chief said he hopes to expand the company “not only in the respiratory market, but in other markets as well.”
During Trowbridge's tenure at Liberty, a direct-to-consumer Medicare provider of diabetes testing supplies and medications, company revenues grew from approximately $100 million to $450 million in five years. Trowbridge left the company at the beginning of the year, after which PolyMedica CFO Stephen Farrell was appointed Liberty's new president.
RDI is owned by private investment firm Sun Capital Partners.
