Schawbel Corporation announces that Mark Thomas will serve as marketing manager of its ThermaCELL Mosquito Repellent division.

Thomas will be responsible for marketing activities in the U.S. for the hunting, camping and outdoor living business segments. Josh Silvia, the former marketing associate, was promoted to marketing manager for Thermacell Heated Insoles earlier this year.

“Mark's deep experience marketing to mass consumers as well as hunting, fishing and outdoor enthusiasts makes him an ideal fit for this position,” said Allegra Lowitt, vice president of marketing.

Thomas is a marketing veteran having held posts with organizations such as Volvo-Penta, Continental Airlines and Invisible Fence. He was selected for the position because of his diverse skill set which also includes experience in the outdoor and firearms industry with Remington, the National Shooting Sports Foundation and most recently Walther Firearms.
