In this second of a two-part video from PN’s recent Executive Forum, industry molding veteran Hoop Roche spells out his 10 rules for navigating the rocky shoals of bankruptcy and restructuring. He learned these the hard way last year with Corry, Pa.-based Erie Plastics Corp., his well-respected, family-owned injection molding firm.
