Brian Kelley advances to South Region Sales Manager
for the Bostik Construction & Distribution Division
Middleton, Mass. (Aug. 21, 2008) —
Bostik Inc.’s Construction & Distribution (C&D) Division has promoted Brian Kelley to South Region Sales Manager.

Formerly East Region Sales Manager for Bostik C&D Division’s flooring solutions, Kelley now oversees accounts in the South and adds sales responsibility for Chem-Calk® commercial and Bostik Home® residential Construction Sealants & Adhesives.

Kelley will continue to manage sales of Bostik® and DURABOND® hardwood installation products, Hydroment® and DURABOND ceramic installation systems, DURABOND carpet, vinyl and
cement patch products, and Bostik’s resilient flooring innovations ─ only now in the South.

Kelley’s 12-state sales management territory covers Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.

"This move allows me to concentrate on a more-efficient piece of geography and to greatly expand the number of Bostik C&D solutions our customers have access to," said Kelley, who graduated in 1988 from The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, with a bachelor of science degree and a major in marketing.

Kelley joined Bostik in 1994 after serving Summitville Tile and Florida Tile in various sales capacities. In 2000, he advanced from Midwest Territory Manager for Bostik C&D’s Hydroment ceramic solutions to become East Region Sales Manager for hardwood and ceramic products. A year later, he added sales management responsibility for carpet, vinyl and cement patch products in the region.

Kelley reports directly to Robert McNamara, Director of Sales & Marketing for the Bostik C&D Division.

"Brian knows well our products and sales people and is absolutely committed to customer service excellence," McNamara said. "Brian embodies Southern hospitality and will be a tremendous asset to the team and our distribution and contractor partners in the South."
