Röhm Expands Regional Sales Team

Röhm Products of America (Suwanee, GA), a leading provider of high-quality clamping and gripping technology, recently expanded its customer sales and support team with the addition of five regional sales managers. This move is intended to increase visibility and support for their workholding and end-of-arm tooling in North America.

With more than 100 collective years of experience, these regional sales managers are tasked with using their proven trouble-shooting skills and a consultative, solution-based approach to support customers with selection and application of a comprehensive offering of chucks, centers, vises and tool clamping and automation systems, as well as customized solutions for turning, milling, drilling and grinding.

Customers in the Mid-Atlantic states are now being served by Al Dopf, who returns to them after a brief stint as the regional manager for an accessory distributor representing Röhm. He has extensive product knowledge, as well as metalworking experience amassed over 30 years in sales positions at a controls distributor, a machine tool dealer, and as a regional manager for a machine tool builder.

Edward Borsos has been named regional sales manager for Michigan and Canada. A 26-year metalworking veteran, he has deep experience supporting customers in the automotive-saturated Michigan market. Prior to joining the company he held two positions at MSC Industrial Supply, first as a metalworking technical sales associate, then as a metalworking outside sales associate.

Jennifer Allison has joined them to serve customers in the Western part of the U.S. She has 30 years of progressive experience in sales and marketing in the metalworking industry at companies that include cutting tool manufacturers, machine tool distributors and a machine tool manufacturer. Most recently, she was a regional sales manager for Kennametal Extrude Hone.

They also welcome Jimmy Clark to the team of regional sales managers. Clark’s focus is the company’s growing customer base in the Southeast and Northeast regions. His broad sales and manufacturing experience spans 19 years and includes recent positions as the regional sales manager for Hardinge and DMG MORI, which have prepared him well to support customers in these regions with their existing and future products.

Rodney Payton has joined the team to serve customers in the South Central states of Kansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Missouri. With 25 years of manufacturing experience in the oil and gas, aerospace, general engineering and fitness industries, he is well-suited to meet the workholding and end-of-arm tooling needs of shops in a wide variety of industries. Just before joining their team, he was a sales engineer at Walter Valenite.

“This is an exciting time for us and our customers,” stated chief executive officer Matthew Mayer. “The addition of these exceptional individuals to our team positions us to provide optimal service to both new and existing customers to grow our workholding business throughout North America.”
