Core-Mark, a Performance Food Group company, recently promoted two executives, Bill Allshouse (pictured left) and Uzo Orabile (pictured right).

Allshouse has been named the company’s COO. Most recently, Allshouse was CFO of Core-Mark, where he played a “crucial” role in the company’s integration into the PFG family of companies, Core-Mark said. Previously, Allshouse held the position of CFO at Vistar a division of PFG. During his time in the PFG segments, Allshouse led the enterprise risk management function, capital planning efforts and participated in due diligence and integration for several acquisitions.

Orabile succeeds Allshouse as senior vice president and CFO. He joined Core-Mark in 2022 and prior to this role was vice president and corporate controller. Earlier in his career, he held various senior leadership roles at Wal-Mart, Solera and Kimberly-Clark. 

“Core-Mark is incredibly fortunate to have such a pool of talented employees, whose dedication and skills make internal promotions a seamless process,” said Chris Hobson, president and CEO of Core-Mark. “By nurturing our in-house talent, we are able to ensure these key positions are filled with individuals who deeply understand our values and culture and will help position our organization for furthered success.”
