New West Coast Presence for Braxton-Bragg

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Braxton-Bragg continues its emphasis on strengthening up outside sales by naming Joe Torres as west coast regional sales manager

Joe TorresTorres brings Braxton-Bragg years of CNC, stone, tile and concrete tooling, sales experience with stints at Diamut, GranQuartz and Hard Rock Tool.

Torres now manages 10 western states, with an immediate focus on key accounts throughout the territory, and general coverage of the Southern California area.

 “We are committed to world-class customer service, and Joe’s track record and customer following reflects the same values,” says Rick Stimac, Braxton-Bragg CEO. “Outside sales is once again a big focus for us, and the West Coast is a region where we see additional opportunity, so we are blessed to have Joe join our team.”

One example of Torres’ commitment is when a former employer had f veteran salesmen leave their Southern California territories and move to a competitor, he and another salesman managed to cover all of the five territories, and support customers by working a seven-day-a-week schedule.

“Success is no accident,” says Torres.  “It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, loving what you do.

“This new position is an opportunity for me to reconnect with some past stone fabrication customers, and introduce new ones to the Braxton-Bragg spectrum of CNC products. I am happy to come back to my roots.”
