Hunter Industrial Fans, a division of the Hunter Fan Company, has added Seth Downing as national account manager for the company’s Jan Fan division.
As national account manager, Downing will oversee the industrial distribution sales strategy for Hunter’s Jan Fan Division by developing and executing product sales strategies and establishing key accounts on a national level. He will also be responsible for the administration and support of all customers in this vertical, which includes sales, marketing, logistics, and returns.

With over 10 years of experience in sales, marketing, management and product development, Downing has developed a unique ability to lead cross-functional teams, grow revenue, develop customer programs and execute promotional campaigns with measurable results.
“Not only does Seth bring innovative ideas to the table, but he also has the necessary experience and strong business acumen to effectively execute those ideas and achieve the desired results,” says Mark D’Agostino, senior vice president and general manager of Hunter Industrial. “We look forward to seeing how his ideas will continue to grow our Jan Fan Division.”
