VECOPLAN ADDS ESPINOSA

Espinosa has more than 16 years of experience in the recycling and secure shredding industries. Since 1994 he served as the general operations manager for Tri-R Systems Corp. in Denver, where he oversaw the company’s recycling and shredding operations.
"We first met Robb when Tri-R purchased one of our plant based systems, but we really got to know him when we started our Mobile Division," Vecoplan’s COO Len Beusse says. "Robb was one of our many customers who provided invaluable input and feedback on just what an end-user looked for in a shred truck. Tri-R bought our first mobile, and we’ve worked together ever since. As a former customer, Robb’s in a unique position to help us continue to understand and meet customer needs," Beusse adds.
Espinosa is a graduate of Regis University in Denver.
