Greenland (America) adds Randy Goodman to staff

Metals trading and recycling company Greenland (America) Inc., headquartered in Atlanta, has announced that scrap metal veteran Randy Goodman will join its executive team in the summer of 2015. The company, in a news release, says Goodman will be an integral part of the reorganization of Greenland (America)’s executive team.

The addition of Goodman will allow the company to grow its footprint within North America while allowing Vishal Jaitia, president of Greenland (America), to concentrate on Greenland’s European and Indian trading operations, according to the company.

“Randy’s reputation and long-term commitment to the industry make him a perfect match for Greenland (America),” says Suresh Jaitia, CEO of Greenland (America).

Goodman’s responsibilities will include new business development (trading) along with transitioning into overseeing all trading efforts in the Americas. Goodman also is expected to help the company pursue other nonferrous scrap grades that were previously not regularly traded, including zorba, zurik and shredded wires.

“We have a vision of where Greenland will grow in the next few years, and Randy shares that vision and will be a perfect fit for our family business-based culture,” says Vishal Jaitia, president of Greenland (America).

Greenland (America) Inc., established in 1980, specializes in buying and selling ferrous and nonferrous metal. In addition to its Atlanta headquarters, the company operates offices in Guangzhou, China, and Mumbai.
