Mountainsmith named Pinnacle Outdoor Group as its 2014 Sales Agency of the Year and recipient of its Anvil Award. Hal Ellms, Ben Winther and Sarah Maher, have earned the accolade for their work in New England.
“This award is made possible by the tremendous support and good cheer that the Mountainsmith team provides us on every level,” states Ellms. “The brand has decades of heritage and we are honored to play a role in their ongoing success.”
Pinnacle Outdoor Group is a manufacture’s rep agency with three offices across New England. The Pinnacle team represents industry leading brands within a diverse collection of retail channels. Their current roster includes Mountainsmith, Darn Tough Vermont, Vasque, Forsake and Vere Sandal Company.
“Hal, Ben and Sarah have been strong advocates of the brand for over a decade,” said Jay Getzel, president of Mountainsmith. “They are dedicated to their retailers, knowledgeable about the landscape of the New England marketplace and experts in servicing accounts from local brick and mortar shops, to national chains and on-line dealers. These factors have all proven to be the recipe for success. Pinnacle Outdoor Group has been forging deeper relationships in the northeast with each passing season and we could not ask for a better team to represent us in the territory or a better group of people to call friends and peers in this industry.”
