The Espoma Company has hired Maureen Wright as its newest territory sales manager.
Wright will work with IGCs in the south-central U.S., which includes Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas.
Born in New York and an Oklahoma resident for 20 years, Wright earned a bachelor’s degree from Rowan University and got her start in the lawn and garden industry when she became a certified Master Gardener from Oklahoma State University.
“We are proud to welcome Maureen to the Espoma Team,” said Espoma Vice President of Sales Shawn Shockey. ”Maureen’s strong background in offering exceptional customer service will help us to continue to be the best supplier for our customers.”
Espoma also thanked Carol Bailey for her decade of service to the company as she enters retirement.
“Carol’s work in helping build great relationships and building the Espoma brand were an enormous part of our success over the last 10 years,” said Espoma President Jeremy Brunner.
The Espoma Company is a fourth-generation, family-owned business producing organic fertilizer since 1929. For more information, visit espomadealer.com.
