Peter Wolpert
President
Leads the day-to-day operations of City Chemical LLC in West Haven, Connecticut, overseeing how chemicals are packaged, stored, and shipped. Nearly five decades in the business sit behind that work, spanning three generations of family involvement in the industry.
How He Got Here
Peter Wolpert spends his days thinking about the practical problems of chemical distribution: how to package a product safely, how to store it without risk, how to get it from a warehouse to a customer's door without incident. As President of City Chemical LLC, these questions are his daily business.
That knowledge didn't come from a classroom alone, though he holds both a Bachelor of Business Administration and a Master of Business Administration, in Marketing and Finance, from the University of Miami. It came from decades inside the same company his father and grandfather had worked before him, learning the chemical trade from people who had already spent their careers in it.
Outside the office, Wolpert keeps a full personal life. He plays golf, fishes, and cooks, often for friends and family gathered for an evening at his home. He also keeps German shepherds, a longstanding interest alongside his other pursuits. The same hands-on curiosity he brings to the kitchen and the golf course shows up in how he runs a business built on precision and care.
