Cynthia A. (Dohmen) LaConte
Chief Executive Officer
Cynthia LaConte was named Dohmen’s Chief Executive Officer in January 2009. Also the president of the Dohmen Investment Group and the Dohmen Company Foundation, which she launched in 2008, Cynthia has held other leadership roles within the enterprise.
In 1995, she created a joint venture called DDN/Obergfel, investing in a new warehousing operation in Memphis, Tenn. In 1996, she facilitated the acquisition of Obergfel and founded DDN Pharmaceutical Logistics, serving as its President until 2006, when she was named Dohmen’s Chief Operating Officer. As COO, she advanced the sale of Dohmen’s $2 billion wholesale division, reorganizing the company post-transaction and redefining its strategy.
Dohmen has remained successful for 154 years because it has been able to consistently transform its strategy to align with the changing healthcare landscape. Today, Cynthia has continued that tradition of innovation by expanding Dohmen’s life science service capability and transforming Dohmen into a multidivisional company focused on one vision: to create a more efficient, affordable and accessible healthcare supply system.
Before joining her family’s company, she managed the growth of a single location franchise into a regional operation with three distinct, profitable revenue streams and four thriving locations. Cynthia graduated cum laude from Mount Mary College with a Bachelor of Arts in Business Merchandising.
