Marty Moran is the new chairman of NCTO for 2018-19. He is a 26-year veteran of the textile sector committed to finding solutions to the challenges facing US manufacturers. The National Council of Textile Organisation represents the entire spectrum of the textile manufacturing sector in the US, from fiber and yarn to fabric and finishing – and everything in between. NCTO strives to bring a clear, strong and aggressive voice of support for US textile manufacturers in the national policy arena.
NCTO is an advocacy organization. Moran will place the highest emphasis on identifying key policy matters that hold the potential to impact the textile sector. He believes if the US textile industry can get customers to focus their business models on actual profit earned rather than on theoretical profit margins on items not yet sold, more textile supply chain jobs and production will be reshored in the United States.
Moran is CEO of Buhler Quality Yarns, a fine-count spinner of premium, innovative and sustainable yarns – most notably Supima, MicroModal and Tencel. Beyond spinning high-quality yarns in the US, Buhler is known for supply chain management, expertise and consultation. In particular, it works with customers to develop nimble, speed-to-market supply chains.
