Jake Gress, regional vice president for the West, has been promoted to the newly created position of L&W Supply vice president of operations.
Gress has been in the industry for over 17 years, spending the last 10 with L&W Supply. Since L&W Supply’s acquisition by ABC Supply in 2016, Gress has developed a strong team and led the West Region to success. Gress’s ability to generate growth, optimize customer and vendor relationships, and understand the complexities of L&W Supply’s business will serve him well in this new capacity.
In his new role, Gress will be responsible for L&W Supply’s operations function (including safety, compliance, fleet and real estate) along with the marketing, merchandising and training teams.
