H.D. Smith names new VP generic pharmaceuticals

SPRINGFIELD TOWNSHIP, Ill. — Wholesaler H.D. Smith last week promoted Dmitrey Kuznetsov to VP generic pharmaceuticals. 

 

In this new role, Kuznetsov will be responsible for the generic pharmaceutical category to improve profits by driving a consistent and comprehensive strategy. Adding to his current responsibilities with generic sourcing, he will assume responsibility for the commercialization of generics. This will allow Kuznetsov to continue to deliver incremental value and still lead H. D. Smith’s generic sourcing activities. In his expanded role, Kuznetsov will help develop programs and pricing initiatives that will optimize generics for H. D. Smith’s customers.

 

Kuznetsov joined H. D. Smith in 2012 as VP generic pharmaceuticals sourcing, and was responsible for the development, implementation and management of the generic pharmaceuticals sourcing strategy. He led the team in establishing strategic relationships with trading partners that have resulted in H. D. Smith’s competitive generics portfolio. In addition, his team was able to negotiate improved terms and conditions with trading partners that have allowed H. D. Smith to be contemporary with contracts.
