Reuter to Lead Winsupply Metro Expansion in Philly Region

Winsupply Inc. (Dayton, OH):

The company named Ken Resuta regional development manager. He has more than 35 years of distribution leadership experience. In his new role, Resuta will work closely with Steve Coen, director of Talent & Strategic Acquisitions and the Winsupply Local Company Group to focus on driving market share growth across major metropolitan areas. His initial focus will be launching a transformative market presence in greater Philadelphia — positioning the company for growth in a vital new region. The goal is to establish independent Winsupply Local Companies dedicated to delivering industry-leading plumbing, HVAC, hydronics and PVF products to residential and commercial contractors.

"Winsupply is built around great people, strong leadership, outstanding product representation and a powerful national scale," Resuta said in the press release. "After 35 years in wholesale distribution, you rarely get the chance to reshape a market from the ground up with a model like this. What excites me most is Winsupply’s true commitment to local decision-making and ownership. Backed by the financial strength of a national powerhouse, our local teams are empowered to control their own destiny and serve contractors with unmatched speed and agility."

Resuta joined Winsupply following a 35-year career at Ferguson. Demonstrating a career trajectory similar to that of a Winsupply entrepreneur, Resuta began his career as a warehouse and sales trainee before moving into sales leadership for 28 years.

"Ken brings a rare combination of deep industry expertise and proven growth leadership," said Rob Ferguson, president, Winsupply Local Company Group, in the press release. "He is precisely the leader we need to drive our presence forward in key metropolitan markets like Greater Philadelphia."

He most recently served as senior general manager and district VP, where he managed P&L performance, top-line growth, real estate planning, vendor relations, and market expansion across a multi-state territory spanning parts of Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, New York and Maryland. During that period, he successfully integrated several strategic acquisitions while achieving outstanding sales performance.
