An innovative and strategic thinker, Doug Misener is Complexica's Managing Director of Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) with more than 35 years of experience in the global beverage industry, including both supply side and retail leadership experience in Australia and abroad.
Before joining Complexica, Doug was the CEO of Liquor Marketing Group, which is one of Australia’s leading alcohol marketing groups with more than 1,400 retail outlets that turnover in excess of $1 billion annually. During his tenure at LMG from 2005 – 2016, Doug transformed the business by divesting its wholesaling division, overhauling its systems & processes, and achieving a debt-free position. His initiatives led to improved relationships with key suppliers, more effective marketing programs, and greater service levels to the retail outlets.
