AZTEC TENTS MAINTAINS GLOBAL GROWTH PACE, EXPANDS PRESENCE ON U.S. EAST COAST

TORRANCE, Calif. – Aztec Tents, one of the largest tent manufacturers in the United States, is continuing its swift growth pace, introducing new outside sales representatives for two of the nation’s quickest growing regions. Eric Christensen and Cory Scott – the newest members of the mounting Aztec team – now oversee the company’s sales and distribution services throughout the Northeast and Southeast U.S., respectively. Both Christensen and Scott report to Biff Gentsch, Director of Sales for Aztec’s recently formed Eastern Division.

Aztec Tents has embarked upon a worldwide strategic growth campaign, which has included the expansion of its East Coast U.S. operation, the addition of its first two international sales resentatives, the establishment of a nationwide distribution alliance with Losberger U.S., and the introduction of its industry-first ‘Compatible-Plus’ product line.

“This is an exciting time to be a part of the Aztec Tents team,” said Gentsch, who will continue to expand the company’s growth east of the Mississippi River. “Our customers are experiencing services and options never before available to them, and our upward staff of talented and knowledgeable representatives is helping to establish a new leader in the tent and structure marketplace.”

Christensen joins the Aztec Tents team with over a decade of outside sales experience in the tent industry. He began his career in 1997, selling tents, structures, tables, chairs, dance floors and tent accessories to the event rental market in the Midwest U.S. In 2004, Christensen joined Aztec as an independent outside sales rep. He now manages the compan’s inside sales and support services in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.

Scott, a former Marine sergeant, grew up surrounded by a family-owned special event business. His sales experience includes a successful tenure with a global logistics firm and government sales in Georgia’s high-density storage industry. In his new role with Aztec Tents, Scott oversees inside sales and support for Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida.

“We are extremely proud of our growing Eastern Division and the successes that we are seeing in these emerging markets,” said Alex Kouzmanoff, Aztec Tents’ National Sales Manager. “As we continue to grow – both throughout the United States and internationally – Aztec remains committed to the tenets of customer service and loyalty that have guided us since 1966.”
