“With this permanent appointment, we will have the consistency of leadership and skills required to accelerate the company’s turnaround,” he added. “We expect to add resources in the coming months so that Broder can better serve its customers and vendor partners as we grow the company both organically and through acquisitions.”
“Broder is entering an exciting time and I am pleased that the board has put their trust in me to lead the company,” said Hullinger. “We have a shared vision for Broder and I look forward to building on the gains we have recently made and serving our customer and vendor partners with innovative products, strategies and consistently superior service.”
