The opening of the Southeast U.S. office comes on the heels of the company moving to a larger corporate headquarters in Troy, MI, and opening its new Orange County, CA, office to service the West Coast. Tebis America continues to achieve sales increases over last year’s reporting and has shown an astounding increase in the number of new customers.

According to David Klotz, the chief executive officer and president of Tebis America, “Our opening of a Southeast U.S. office is just the next step in our continued growth plan. The area is rich in manufacturing and will provide customers and prospects in the area with hands-on sales and service in a timely fashion. Many of our current customers have opened operations in the Southeast and this will allow us to be more hands on. Our  products are quite unique in the market and our growth reflects customer acceptance. It’s an exciting time for us.”

“With the continued growth in the Southeast of major automotive and aerospace OEMs and their supporting supply chains, there is a tremendous opportunity for us to grow our new customer base and provide local support services for our existing customers located here,” added Gilstrap, who is responsible for new business development and comes to the company from Numerical Control Software Solutions, Covington, WA, where he served as the Southeast sales and marketing manager. Prior to that he was the Southeast territory manager for Cam Logic, Inc. (Oxford, MI).

Sullivan will be responsible for applications support and comes to the company from Gestamp South Carolina, LLC (Union, SC), where he oversaw the everyday operation of its CNC department, including scheduling, programming, Tebis CAD/CAM and engineering.
