Hanwha Techwin Automation Americas, formerly Samsung C&T Automation, recently announced the ‘3 Kings’—three reps who go above and beyond to support and build the brand.
“We appreciate and value all our rep partners, but this year Hanwha decided to select the three top performing reps to reign as our three kings,” commented Jonny Nichols, Director of Sales & Marketing, Hanwha. “We made this announcement at our sales meeting during IPC APEX EXPO in San Diego.”
The three kings are:
Ron Torenko of Torenko & Associates. Torenko & Associates has been specializing in capital equipment since 1977. This gives our principals the advantage of our people spending 100% of their time on selling equipment and not being diverted to consumables. Torenko has also been awarded Hanwha’s Top Gun rep award two consecutive years: 2018 and 2019.
Kurt Whitlock of Kurt Whitlock Associates. For the 40 years, Kurt Whitlock Associates has searched the world for cutting edge companies to represent and distribute to electronics assembly customers and potential markets. Their array of companies provide unmatched solutions to meet high volume, high mix, and mid- to low-volume requirements with the same level of service and technical support.
And last but not least, Murray Percival Jr. of the Murray Percival Company. Murray Percival Company is a third-generation family owned business that is celebrating their 60th year in business this year. They are currently the leading supplier to the Midwest's electronics industry, offering thousands of capital and distribution products as well as the industry’s leading process enabler.
