Regan Jones

As a son of a blacksmith, raised in northern Wisconsin, off the shores of Lake Superior, Regan is no stranger to hard work. He remembers the days of digging his car out of snow drifts before the break of day to open up the local hardware store that he worked at. Delivering products in sub-zero temperatures because it was necessary.

Regan Jones has worked at a national industrial distributor at the branch level. He has worked at a regional Independant Manufacturer's Representative and then started working at the national level at a precision measurement OEM. Regan has touched many aspects of the industrial supply chain, and continues to grow through independant representation.
