{Dover, NH} — NEMO is pleased to announce that Kurt Smith and Chaz Warren of Top Gun Sales have been awarded the Inaugural Rep Agency of the Year for 2016. Covering a territory from the midwest to the southeast, these road warriors did it all in 2015. From bringing on an incredible amount of new retailers, helping to grow the NEMO assortment in existing doors, and providing their retailers with the highest level of customer service, these two exceeded expectations. But it is their unending stoke for the brand and passion for the products they sell that really sets them apart.

“Top Gun Sales has been the definition of a first class sales agency since day one. The level of enthusiasm and professionalism they bring to work everyday is to be commended. We absolutely love having Kurt and Chaz on the NEMO team. NEMO’s growth in outdoor specialty is because of agencies like Top Gun and they are more than deserving of this award,” says Director of Sales, Ben Saunders.

NEMO is also excited to announce that Peter Cahill of Exodus Reps will transition from the Mid-Atlantic territory to New England effective July 1, 2016. Peter has been instrumental in NEMO’s growth in the Mid-Atlantic, and this change will allow him to focus on those accounts that are closer to his home in Stowe, VT.

With Peter’s move, NEMO has hired Jamie Baker of Arete Sales Group to service the Mid-Atlantic. Jamie comes on board with great enthusiasm and a drive to continue NEMO’s growth in the region. His commitment to specialty retail is what sets him apart.

“Both Pete and Jamie are two hungry up and comers that have a real passion for people and product,” said Saunders. “Their energy and willingness to do what it takes fits in perfectly with the culture at NEMO. Our sales force has never been stronger, and Jamie and Pete will be instrumental in continuing the outstanding momentum we have seen this year.”

In 2016, NEMO continues to design award-winning products that are built to last, comfortable and fun to use. The focus is always on creating the best possible experience outdoors. Expanding its product line with a full-range of tents, hammocks, sleeping bags, pads, camp tools, and accessories, NEMO’s got you covered for adventure anywhere.
