The new Senior Managers are now responsible for the Photo Imaging and Industrial Optics divisions |
Tamron USA announced the reorganisation of the US operations that merges the responsibilities of the previously separate areas of business. With this restructure, the newly appointed Senior Managers now hold responsibility for both the Photo Imaging Optics and the Industrial Optics divisions of the company. Gregg Maniaci was promoted to Senior Manager, Eastern Region, and Daniel Davies was promoted to Senior Manager, Western Region, each of who will oversee sales activity for both the Photo Imaging & Industrial Optics Division in their respective territories.
"As the pace of business in both the B2C and B2B areas of our operations quickens, we have streamlined the company to a structure that allows sales and profit management of both divisions under one senior manager for each region. This change will allow us to react more quickly to the changing business climates in both areas and will provide the company with even better management of profits and customer relations to ensure a healthy outlook in the coming years," stated Tak Inoue, President and CEO of Tamron USA, Inc.
