Spector & Co., West Chazy, N.Y., announced today the hiring of Jamie Mair, former BDA marketing executive and co-founder of boutique merchandise agency SwervePoint.
“We’re excited Jamie has joined our team,” said Rob Spector, CEO of Spector & Co. “As a past client, he brings a unique perspective and understanding of the supplier, distributor and end-user dynamic, which will help us create more tailored products, and customized services and solutions for our distributor partners.”
“Rob and I have worked together and have been friends since 2005,” Mair said. “Spector & Co. was an incredibly supportive partner to SwervePoint when we were getting started. The team of people and the culture at Spector were what initially attracted us to them all those years ago. Rob and I have visited factories together in China, attended numerous industry events, and sporting events together, and are both in YPO, so we have a long history and a high level of trust already.”
“In April 2018, we partnered with Blue Point Capital Partners to position us for our next chapter of growth,” Spector added. “Today, we couldn’t be more excited about the combination of Blue Point’s team and our management team, along with the addition of Jamie, to drive our long-term strategic growth plan. We’re continuing to invest in our customers and the company and have a forward-looking focus to what’s new and possible.”
“As a growth partner and facilitator of transformative change, Blue Point and the Board are optimistic about the strategic opportunities for Spector and Co., and we’re happy that Jamie has come onboard,” said Jeff Robich, a principal with Blue Point.
