Andy Gilkison, a 14 year golf industry veteran in sales and management, has joined PAHR as Vice President / Partner of the apparel upstart. The lifestyle golf apparel company will launch this Fall. In his new position, Gilkison will oversee distribution and sales worldwide as well as the day-to-day operation of the company.
Gilkison joins PAHR Fairway Essentials with previous sales experience with Cleveland Golf and Titleist, and most recently as National Sales Manager at OGIO. “Joining Steve, Doug and Taylor at this stage in the development of PAHR and being able to help build it as the preeminent golf apparel brand for the lifestyle savvy athlete is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I am thankful for the experience of helping build the OGIO brand and am very proud of what we were able to accomplish there. But, to partner with the talents of Steve, Doug and Taylor at PAHR and help create this brand is a challenge I am very excited about,” said Gilkison.
“We are truly excited about our new partner Andy Gilkison. He was our first big hire within the company and we are honored that he accepted the position. We are confident that his knowledge and expertise will be invaluable as we launch this exciting brand this fall,” proclaimed the partners. Look for the Pahr line to hit the stores in 2007.
Andy and his (future) wife Janna will be relocating to the Carlsbad area.
