Forest City Gear Names New Sales Representatives, Assigns Additional Territories


Roscoe, IL-Forest City Gear proudly announces the appointment of new sales representatives and additional territories for several existing reps, effective immediately. President Wendy Young, in making this announcement, remarked, "Our growth in the last several years has been substantial and we determined it was necessary to expand our field sales force. After considerable effort and an exhaustive search, we are very pleased with the new team." Young also noted these additions were particularly challenging, as the highly customized nature of Forest City Gear's business base requires the sales force to have a keen knowledge of gear manufacturing, application engineering assistance and customer service through an often lengthy buy cycle.

The following new sales representatives are now handling Forest City Gear in the states shown:

Joseph Kemple for Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, south of Route 30

Stephen Peterson for Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota

Curt Nicholson for Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and southern California

Dennis Young for northern Illinois

The following existing reps have been re-assigned to cover these states:

Jim Hagen for Washington, Oregon and Idaho

Stu Glasby for Pennsylvania, upper New York and southern New Jersey

Bob Rundle for northern New Jersey, lower New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Massachusetts
