Tingue, the global laundry product supplier, has named Ty Acton as president.
Promoted from VP Sales by CEO David Tingue, Acton is responsible for implementing the company's overall strategic direction, driving its sales strategy and leading the fourth-generation, family-owned organisation, founded in 1902, on a global expansion that encompasses businesses in the USA, Canada, Asia and Latin America.
Accepting the responsibilities previously held by David Tingue, Acton will continue growing and exporting the Tingue brand and its products and services while remaining committed to both customer and employee satisfaction and retention. The company offers a line of premium quality supplies for flatwork ironers, feeders and folders; rebuilt ironers; laundry carts; rigging and repair services; and replacement parts and accessories for all laundry equipment makes and models.
Acton joined the company in 1983 as a field sales representative and earned increasingly demanding roles and responsibilities as regional sales manager, national sales manager and VP Sales. He recently spearheaded the integration of the laundry parts supplier Talley Machinery into Tingue.
David Tingue said: “Ty Acton understands that building long-term relationships with our customers and our employees will continue to drive our company forward regardless of day-to-day changes in the marketplace. It's personally gratifying for me to see Ty and his team excel year after year and I'm confident he'll continue to raise the bar for excellence in his new role.”
