Core Concepts has hired a new director of sales and regional sales reps in two territories.
 
The apparel maker named Josh Davis to the in-house team as director of wholesale sales. Josh comes on board with 15 years of experience in the outdoor industry, the last seven years of which as sales manager for paddlesports leader NRS. An accomplished whitewater boater and proud father, Josh is also known to frequent the backcountry on his snowboard and cruise the half pipe on his skateboard. Core Concepts is excited to have his talents on the team in their Boise office.


Expanding on one of the most hard-working rep networks around, Core Concepts has added Tom Lawrence in the Midwest and Dustin Schaad in the Rockies.


Lawrence recently returned to Michigan and the Great Lakes after repping his way around the Pacific Northwest. Having grown up in the region, he is familiar with all the opportunities the natural playgrounds of that area have to offer outdoor enthusiasts. Lawrence understands the unique needs of retailers and has a proven record of building the kind of solid relationships that Core Concepts prides itself in maintaining. Tom is looking forward to traveling his old stomping grounds again while covering Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky.


Schaad also brings over 15 years of experience in the outdoor industry to the team with a diverse skill set honed from his work in product research and development, marketing and sales. Prior to coming on board,  Schaad worked as a river, rock climbing and ski guide. Also as a professional mountain bike athlete for The North Face, he managed clinics and events for over 700 accounts in the East covering 5 states. Now back in Utah, he will be the regional sales rep for Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado.
 
“We are excited to have these new additions to our team and look forward to having them be part of the independent revolution we, as an outdoor company, are crafting in our products and approach to the market,” says Noah Bryan, founder of Core Concepts.
