Alejandro Pena, Keter’s dynamic CEO, is steering the company through a transformative journey that began in 2018. Under his leadership, Keter is evolving from its roots as a family-owned business in Israel into a global consumer products company with a strong focus on innovation and sustainability.
Pena’s vision for Keter is deeply influenced by his experience at Rubbermaid, where he gained valuable insights into product management, innovation, and consumer centricity. By applying these principles to Keter’s operations, Pena aims to position the company as a design-led, consumer-centric brand that offers high-quality, sustainable outdoor furniture and lifestyle solutions.
One of the critical drivers of Keter’s success is its commitment to using recyclable resin in its products. This eco-friendly material ensures durability and aesthetic appeal and resonates with the growing number of environmentally conscious consumers. Keter’s dedication to sustainability is further demonstrated through initiatives like the Keter Green Spaces program, which seeks to create greener communities through education and promoting responsible environmental practices.
As part of Keter’s ongoing transformation, Pena and CFO Pasquale Iannone are implementing an omnichannel marketing strategy to provide a seamless and consistent brand experience across all touchpoints. This approach allows customers to engage with Keter through their preferred channels, whether it be physical stores, digital platforms, or various delivery and pickup options, ensuring that the company can meet the evolving needs of its diverse customer base.
Keter’s global presence spans over 100 countries, with a strong foothold in key markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Eastern Europe. The company’s ability to adapt to different cultures and consumer preferences has been a cornerstone of its success. As Pena proudly states, “We speak many languages. We’re diverse, and we are a multinational, multicultural company. We’re citizens of the world.”
Looking ahead, as Keter approaches its 75th anniversary, Pena remains dedicated to maintaining the company’s position as the most innovative player in the industry. By prioritizing consumer-driven innovation, sustainability, and a global mindset, Keter is well-positioned to shape the future of outdoor living solutions and impact communities worldwide.
Under Alejandro Pena’s visionary leadership, Keter is poised for continued growth and success and setting a new standard for the outdoor furniture industry. By embracing innovation, sustainability, and cultural diversity, Keter is ready to tackle the challenges of an ever-changing market and create value for its customers, employees, and the planet.
