VERSATEX Building Products this week announced expansions in its national distributor network and its customer service lineup.

• Cameron Ashley Building Products in Cleveland, serving northeastern Ohio
• BlueLinx in Minneapolis and Duluth, Minn., extending VERSATEX availability throughout Minnesota and western Wisconsin

“We continue to seek outstanding distributor partners who add value to what we do by serving our highly respected building-materials dealers,” said Kapres. “BlueLinx, Cameron Ashley and Carolina Atlantic are outstanding performers when it comes to wholesale distribution. It’s a pleasure to add their locations to our ever-growing distribution network.”  

Kapres also welcomed six new VERSATEX market development specialists who came on board this spring:

• Peter Bondo, based in Long Island, N.Y.
• Patrick Bouchard, serving customers in Quebec, Canada
• Austin Jordan, assisting dealers and distributors in the state of Maine 
• Alex Kapres, covering western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio
• Zachary Archer, covering South Central Texas
• Shane Harrington, covering Eastern New York

Brian Lasinski has also joined the Marketing team at VERSATEX as marketing communication and system specialist.

“We’re unfailingly committed to bringing sales to our stocking dealers by investing in talented downstream salespeople who drive demand by calling on builders, contractors and architects in key regions. We’re thrilled to have these new market development specialists to do just that. These gentlemen are excited about getting started, and we’re eager to see the results — as are our dealers,”  Kapres says.
