Midland Industries Announces New Hires

April 22, 2019
Midland Industries Announces New Hires

Midland Industries has announced that Melissa Coolidge and Todd Evans have joined the company as national sales managers for the plumbing/PVF and waterworks and irrigation markets, respectively. Coolidge and Evans were formerly with Matco-Norca where they both led sales efforts in their respective disciplines. Coolidge is headquartered near Charlotte, North Carolina, and Evans is headquartered near Houston.

At Matco-Norca, Coolidge was the eastern regional sales manager and gained a strong background in plumbing, PVF and supply chain management. Prior to that role, she served in management roles at Ward Manufacturing, Susquehanna Health and Osram Sylvania.

“I am excited to be on the Midland Industries team. The positive energy and team building atmosphere is addicting. Their focus is to maximize each customer’s experience. From products to process, we have a great plan for continued growth and success. I am truly thankful for the opportunity to help them grow,” said Coolidge.

"Melissa possesses a strong ability to communicate both the needs of our customers and the value proposition of our company. Her extensive industry experience, involvement with ASA’s Women in Industry, passion for winning, leadership abilities and dynamic personality make her a perfect fit for Midland Industries," said Scott Bardreau, chief sales officer for Midland Industries.

Evans was Matco-Norca’s national market manager for waterworks and irrigation and built unparalleled knowledge in these disciplines.

“Midland Industries’ technology, marketing expertise and e-commerce solutions bring so much opportunity to maximize each customer’s purchasing experience and will benefit distributors of all size and description,” said Evans. 

“Todd brings a well-established track record and the ability to develop, implement and manage business plans. He will work closely with key corporate and regional leaders from both independent and national Waterworks and Irrigation accounts, building strong relationships, identifying key sales and new product opportunities,” said Bardreau.

Midland Industries is an industrial distribution platform comprised of Anderson Metals, Midland Metal Mfg., Buchanan Rubber, and Mid-America Fittings. The company is a leading North American distributor and manufacturer of valves, fittings, hoses, couplings, and related products. 

“We united leading businesses in the industrial distribution space and leverage best practices across the platform,” said Vince Hodes, CEO of Midland Industries. “We’re committed to attracting the best talent and encouraging them to use their skills and knowledge. That’s how we’ll expand our dynamic, growth-oriented company and serve our like-minded customers.”
