Higginbotham named general manager of Aeronet Newark

Oct 27, 2022

Bill Higginbotham has been hired to head Aeronet Worldwide’s Newark station. His arrival comes prior to the operation moving to a larger facility in November (more details to come).

Higginbotham has over 20 years of experience within global logistics, supply chain, and manufacturing. Most recently, he was Reverse Logistics Manager for Ecovacs Robotics. He has also spent time with Fitbit, Sony Mobile Communications, Dolby Laboratories, and Diversified International Service Logistics. During his time with those organizations, Higginbotham occupied the roles of Vice President of Global Operations, Director of Manufacturing and Logistics, Supply Chain Operations Analyst, and Business Systems Analyst. Not only will he be asked to lead Aeronet’s East Coast gateway, but also analyze and discern the station’s key business metrics, develop a success plan, and drive best practices, which is crucial as the facility move commences.
