Cannon Safe Names Gondek Brand Sales Manager

Las Vegas, NE– Cannon Safe Inc. is pleased to announce its recent hire of Gregory Gondek, who joins the Cannon Safe team as the Brand Sales Manager. Gondek will lead the Cannon Safe sales team and manage the promotion and organization of brand sales policies and practices to drive bottom line growth of Cannon Safe gun-safe and security-safe product lines.

With military background as a Security Police Officer for the United States Air Force, Gondek was attracted to Cannon Safe's goal of A Safe in Every Home™. "I carried firearms every day and saw the importance of protecting those weapons," Gondek said. "In my short time at Cannon, I have already seen a sense of pride and a strong commitment—from the plant floor to the corporate office—to produce high-quality products that protect families and their valuables."

Gondek comes to Cannon Safe with over 15 years of progressive experience in direct sales, channel sales, business development, marketing and consulting management. Most recently, Gondek worked at MAX USA Corporation as the Northeast Regional Sales Manager, where he managed and directed the sales force to achieve sales and profit goals.

Armed with extensive knowledge and relationships in construction and hardware channels from previous work at 3M and RIDGID, Gondek will execute sales, marketing and merchandising growth strategies through key independent, national and manufacturer representatives to strengthen the impact of the Cannon Safe brand in the outdoor marketplace.

Gondek received his MBA from Pennsylvania State University and is excited to see "theory being put into practice" at Cannon Safe, utilizing his learned skills, practical experience and wisdom to contribute to a goal he believes in. "Everything at Cannon Safe leads to A Safe in Every Home," he said.
