STAUF USA ADDS TO GROWING SALES FORCE
STAUF USA is proud to announce the addition of Peter Lucchesi of Memphis, TN to the STAUF sales force. As the Central Regional Sales Director, Peter will be responsible for managing and servicing the Central Region of STAUF’s distribution network as well as development of new opportunities for the company. “Peter has some of the great characteristics that I look for in an employee. He is dedicated, trustworthy and has integrity. His knowledge and relationships are very good and I am very proud to have Peter as part of our team,” says David Ford, VP of Sales and Marketing for STAUF.
Peter joins STAUF with nearly a decade of experience in the industry. He graduated from Christian Brothers University in Memphis, TN in 2002 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Management, and got his start in the Flooring Industry shortly after in 2006. As a Key Account Manager with Global Market Partners/Precision Technology, he covered distributors in the eastern US region. While mainly working on the wood/cork side, he also assisted in sales efforts with Precision Technology, a manufacturer of finishes, sealers, stains and wood-fillers for unfinished wood floors.
In 2015 Lucchesi went to work for BPI Distributors. At BPI, he was the Memphis Territory Manager for hard-surface products: Anderson, Armstrong, Columbia, Prestige, Indus-Parquet, Qu-Cork, Bostik and Franklin. During his time with BPI, he was able to expand his knowledge of the flooring industry as well as get a true understanding of the day to day life of a distributor account manager.
“When the opportunity presented itself with STAUF USA in July 2015, I knew and felt that it is a special place and I wanted to be a part of the STAUF team. Also, knowing how far STAUF USA has come and the opportunities that are still ahead is extremely exciting,” says Lucchesi. STAUF is happy to have Peter on board, and looks forward to the relationships he will establish and cultivate, both new and old. Peter can be reached at Peter.lucchesi@staufusa.com.
