Gulfeagle Supply Announces Promotions Following Upcoming Retirement of Doug Stringfellow
With its latest branch opening in Cincinnati, Gulfeagle Supply has now placed a stake in Ohio. The supplier will serve Southern Ohio, Southeast Indiana and Northern Kentucky from its new branch.
Gulfeagle Supply announced changes in its leadership following Doug Stringfellow’s upcoming retirement. Brad Powers was promoted to vice president of sales and operations for the Southeast. Bill Wilson was named vice president of sales and operations for the West (including California).
According to a release, Stringfellow plans to retire this fall and help during the transition in leadership. Stringfellow has been with Gulfeagle Supply since the acquisition of his family’s distribution company in 1995. Stringfellow has played a vital role in Gulfeagle’s growth and success over the past 28 years with the company.

Kurt Schwahn will now oversee both sales and operations as executive vice president of sales and operations for the company.
Gulfeagle states the promotions from within "directly show the company’s commitment to its core value of 'development of people.'"
