Franklin Retail Solutions has hired Allison Duckloe as its first marketing associate to assist with the company's  continued expansion. 

Duckloe will be in charge of the company’s marketing campaigns, case studies, blog, social media, and internal communications.  She will also help represent the company at trade shows and events.

Duckloe  received her degree in Business Administration from Babson College with a concentration in Retail and Supply Chain Management.  After graduation, she worked at inStream Media overseeing the company’s ads and promotions.  In addition to her professional experience, she also has a passion for the outdoors having worked as a ski instructor and a camp counselor in Algonquin Park, Ontario.

She brings her great enthusiasm for the outdoor and sports retail industry and is looking forward to expanding FRS’s impact on the market. 

“I am very excited to be taking the next step in my career with Franklin Retail Solutions,” Duckloe said. “FRS has a lot to offer both brands and retailers, and I am looking forward to spreading the word about what we do.  Driving new clients to our services and continuing to build our existing clients’ business will be the key to our continued success.”

“I’m excited to see what happens as she applies her academic, professional, and personal experience in her new role.” said Tom O’Brien, the President of Franklin Retail Solutions. “Franklin Retail is the leading provider of in-store merchandising services to brands in the sports and outdoor industries, but there are still many in the industry that aren’t aware of us. Allison will help raise awareness among those brands.”

Franklin Retail Solutions provides in-store merchandising, educational marketing services and consultative services for retailers and vendors in the Sporting Goods, Outdoor and Active Lifestyle Industries.
