American Event Services Names Pump Industry Executive Carron Fluid Handling Sales Manager
American Event Services has named Kyle Carron fluid handling sales manager, a newly created position. Carron joins AES from a multinational manufacturer of submersible and surface pumps and motors, where he was business unit sales manager-fleet.
“Kyle has established positive relationships throughout the fluid handling and equipment rental industries by focusing on excellent customer service, integrity and honesty,” said Tony Tauer, CEO of American Event Services. “He will play an important role in our growth as a major supplier of the most reliable, rugged pumps to the rental industry. To that end, we’ve made significant investments into product design and engineering as well as the expansion of our fluid handling capacity with the acquisition of Canariis.”
Prior to working two years as business unit sales manager-fleet, Carron was a highly successful fluid solutions sales executive in the equipment rental industry for nine years, the company said.
Carron served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 2009-2013, with multiple deployments during his military service.
“I am excited to help AES deliver the highest quality, most effective products on the market and reach our full potential in the pump manufacturing industry,” Carron said. “I joined AES because of its strong reputation, unwavering commitment to customer service, and skilled and dedicated team. There is so much potential waiting to be tapped.”
Headquartered in Danville, Ill., American Event Services is an independent manufacturer of HVAC, fluid handling, power distribution and other products dedicated exclusively to the equipment rental industry. Targeting the specialty rental segment, the company designs and manufactures “Rentalized” equipment customized for fleet customers in industrial, municipal, construction and special event applications.
