Twins Enterprise, Inc., which owns the Twins '47 and Banner '47 brands, said Steve Irwin has assumed the territory sales position for Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming. The territory had been previously covered by a combination of independent agency sales reps and inside sales staff.
“We continue to activate our sales team model by converting to full time employee sales representatives,” said National Sales Manager, Dan Larner. “The growth of our business is dictating the need to dedicate full time resources to selling only our signature headwear and apparel.”
Irwin comes to Forty Seven Brand with a strong knowledge selling licensed products. Irwin spent seven years as a soft goods buyer at an off campus bookstore at the University of Illinois. For the past 13 years he has been a sales rep in the college and resort channels. Originally from Indiana, Irwin now makes his home in Colorado and is a graduate of Indiana University.
Irwin will be responsible for account management of college bookstores, minor league sports and general retail and resorts.
Twins Enterprise, Inc., established in 1947, holds licenses with Major League Baseball, the NHL, the NBA and over 600 college programs. TEI is also a proud partner of US Open Tennis, US Open Golf and other PGA events.
