Fortis Solutions Group has named Steve Powers as its new chief commercial officer.
Fortis is a provider of high impact printed packaging options. Mr Powers has been in the printing industry for over 30 years both on the manufacturing and supplier sides of the business. For the previous decade, he has taken on ever-increasing roles and responsibilities within HP, most recently having served as sales director for the LEP press manufacturer’s labels and packaging segment, and sales director for executive major accounts in North America. Prior to HP, he was an account manager at Heidelberg and prior to that vice president of operations at Hillsboro Printing in Florida.
In his new role, Mr Powers will lead Fortis’ commercial go-to-market sales and marketing strategies.
‘Having worked with John [O. Wynne, Jr, Fortis Solutions Group president and CEO] and his team over the last decade, I have admired what they have been building and the approach they have taken in supporting customers. I look forward to helping scale the business while continuing to deliver a high level of service to our customers.’
Mr Wynne said, ‘Steve is a proven sales executive who has consistently grown revenue within his areas of responsibility through the cross-selling of products, wallet share gains and new account growth while delivering a superior customer experience. I’m looking forward to working closely with Steve to drive further opportunities for our customers.’
