Gulfeagle Supply today announced the appointment of Kevin Sims as chief operating officer.

As Gulfeagle continues to grow with more than 130 branches across 33 states, the addition of the chief operating officer position further strengthens the company's executive leadership team and supports the company’s continued growth. Sims has been appointed to serve as Gulfeagle's first Chief Operating Officer.

Sims brings more than 25 years of roofing distribution experience to Gulfeagle. He began his career with his family's roofing supply company in Tennessee and went on to hold district, regional, director, and vice president leadership positions with some of the industry's largest organizations, overseeing operations across networks of more than 150 locations.

"Kevin's extensive experience in roofing distribution and operations leadership makes him an outstanding addition to our executive team," said Brad Resch, President of Gulfeagle Supply. "As Gulfeagle continues to grow, Kevin's leadership will help strengthen our operaƟons while conƟnuing to provide excepƟonal support to our branches, customers, and vendor partners."

Sims currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia, and will ultimately relocate to Tampa, Florida, where he will be based at Gulfeagle's Branch Support Center. In the meantime, he will divide his time, working closely with branches and teams across the company.

Additionally, Brad Powers will continue as the company’s CRO, utilizing his 25 years’ experience in the industry to focus on sales growth and relationship development.
