Kinedyne Expands U.S. Sales Team

Establishes new, National OEM Account Manager position New appointments also made at territory level

BRANCHBURG, NJ (August 10, 2011) – Kinedyne Corporation has initiated a number of changes to its United States sales team, with a collective goal of providing an even higher level of customer service. Among these changes is the establishment of a National OEM Account Manager position that will be responsible for managing the company's efforts to service Original Equipment Trailer Manufacturers and work closely with them to identify their needs and provide them with innovative solutions.

Assuming this new role is Scott Frazier, a veteran member of Kinedyne’s U.S. sales team who previously served as an Account Executive covering the company’s Midwest region. The company also announced the addition of two new members to its U.S. sales team. Troy Davenport has taken over Frazier’s previous position, while Robert Warren has assumed an Account Executive position with the team.

“Kinedyne holds an industry-wide reputation for the exceptional service we provide to all our customers, and our sales team is absolutely central to that accomplishment,” says Larry Harrison, Kindeyne’s Vice President of Sales & Marketing. “We have an ongoing commitment to seek out exceptional, high-caliber individuals to represent our company. Our sales management team, including both Mike Hauer – Director of Sales, United States – and I, are totally confident our customers will agree with us that Scott, Troy and Robert all fit the bill perfectly.”
