Dade Auctions expands sales force
Dade Auctions, a Maumee, Ohio-based used-equipment marketplace for the salvage, recycling and waste industries, has added three sales representatives.
Dade Capital Corp. recently split off its buying, selling and customer service operations to form Dade Auctions, while Dade Capital continues to offer financing options.
Dade Auctions President Andrew Fournier says the expanding sales force comes at a time of increasing growth in the industries the company serves.
Dana Pienta joins Dade Auctions as a sales and client relations representative serving the Southeast region, bringing experience developed in sales and marketing with Automatic Handling International.
Brandon Must comes to Dade with experience from his time at General Truck Sales of Toledo, Ohio. He is a sales and client relations representative for the Northeast region.
Travis Powers is a sales and client relations representative for the South-Central region. He previously worked as a dispatcher for Tri-State Expediting Services.
All positions are effective immediately and report directly to Greg Szymanski, Dade Auctions general sales manager.
REI adds to sales, operations staff
Newton, North Carolina-based Recycling Equipment Inc. (REI) has added three employees to its staff, two of whom will work from the Newton main office and the other from REI’s Dallas-Fort Worth location.
Jim Corrigan has been added as vice president of Southwest operations in REI’s Dallas-Fort Worth office and operations facility. He will manage daily operations of REI in Texas and the Southeast.
Corrigan gained more than 20 years of operations management experience as an officer in the U.S. Army before transitioning to the private sector, where he has worked in operations and logistics management.
R.J. Harper has been added as a project manager in North Carolina.
“Be it a single piece of equipment or a complex, multifaceted system, R.J. will work to ensure that all facets of design and delivery are executed in a way that exceeds customer expectations as he monitors the manufacturing process of each project and interacts with sales engineers and customers,” REI says.
Harper previously worked for Alpena, Michigan-based Amos Mfg. Inc., where he managed dealer accounts. He also has experience in sales management, manufacturing, logistics and information technology.
Chris Burns has been added as sales and market development manager in North Carolina, where REI says he will strive to cultivate new customer relationships in existing areas of business as well as manage and develop new initiatives in untapped business sectors.
Burns has more than 35 years of experience in packaging and recycling equipment sales and manufacturing, including with North Carolina-based FleetGenius and its predecessor, Bakers Waste Equipment Inc.
“We are pleased to have Jim, R.J. and Chris join our team at one of the most exciting times in the history of REI,” President Scott Sharp says. “We’ve made significant investments over the past 10 years assembling a top-tier team, and the addition of these men, with the experience and expertise they each bring, only adds to our depth and strengthens our ability to achieve our next level of success.”
REI offers several configurations of balers in addition to conveyors, sorting systems, shredders, roll cutters, dust collection systems and baling wire.
