Advanced Adhesives Names VP of Sales

Dalton, GA, Dec. 5--Advanced Adhesives Technologies has named Wade R. Verble their new Vice President of Sales. The announcement was made by Greg Wood, AAT's Vice President and General Manager. "We are thrilled to add Wade to our management team. His energy and experience will be tremendous assets to the company. AAT has positioned itself for significant growth, and Wade's talents will only add to our overall effectiveness. Wade and I have enjoyed a competitive friendship, and now I am looking forward to our partnership." Wade Verble comes to AAT after over a decade of successful experience in the adhesives industry. Verble's professional experience began as a merchandising manager for Capitol Adhesives of Dalton where he handled national accounts. He was next recruited by DriTac Adhesives Group, based in Brooklyn, NY, as their Southeast Sales Manager. In that position he was a forerunner in converting the floor covering market from chlorinated solvents to water-based adhesives. Verble then managed national floorcovering accounts for R. A. Siegel Company where he won the 1997 National Award for highest sales in the United States. DriTac again recruited Verble in 1998 as Eastern Regional Sales Manager and quickly promoted him to National Sales Manager, in which role he directed sales and marketing nation-wide for over three years before coming to AAT.
