The Award honors women in science, technology, engineering and production careers who exemplify leadership within their companies.

As plant lead at O-I's Lurin, Peru Manufacturing facility, Caceres leads a team focused on safely, and sustainably, producing the highest quality glass packaging.

Caceres is credited with driving key improvements in her facility, including improved plant safety, reduction in environmental impact areas and increased engagement of employees. She is also credited with making a difference in her community.

"When local students needed technology to learn from home amid the pandemic, Andrea led the Lurin plant's efforts to donate tablets and laptops to support education," said Eduardo Restrepo, vice president of Global Manufacturing for O-I. "Andrea and her team have organized community education programs to promote recycling and educate others on living more sustainably. And, she is dedicated to supporting the next generation of women in her industry, providing mentorship for another female engineer in the facility, as well as providing leadership for another female mentee in the marketing department. She is to be congratulated for the impact she has made and continues to make at O-I by delivering superior levels of factory performance and inspiring other females across the enterprise."

Caceres began her career with O-I as a manufacturing trainee in 2013. She holds an undergraduate degree in Industrial Engineering from Universidad de Lima and earned her MBA at Universidad del Pacífico, along with executive training at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Wharton School of Business.

"I am honored to be recognized among so many talented women in manufacturing and representing the talented females that are making a difference at O-I," said Caceres.
