Barrett will manage the North American sales team and oversee U.S. distribution. She will reinforce the current distribution channels and lead the U.S. sales force. Barrett steps into the role following the recent announcement of global sales development manager Travis Erwins promotion to European GM, providing dedicated oversight to each market respectively.
“Im very excited to join the Reynolds team at this key time in its growth, said Lori Barrett, Reynolds national sales manager. Ive been riding Reynolds for a long time, and look forward to continuing development of the dealer-focused initiatives, while we continue investing in Reynolds carbon technology.”
