Longtime Minimizer Territory Manager Bud Breau was named Fleet Brake’s 2016 Manufacturer Representative of the Year.
“To us, Bud is Minimizer,” said Tim Douglas, Fleet Brake vice president of sales. “We would feel guilty now if we were to sell any other line of poly fender.”
“I am truly honored to have received such a prestigious award,” said Breau. “The folks at Fleet Brake are some of the best in the industry, and I am truly humbled by this honor.”
Fleet Brake’s executive team, as well as all 14 branch managers, vote on the award, which has been issued the past four years.
“Our criteria are a rep who is a true expert in their field, as well as a guy who is passionate about customer service, the industry and their products,” said Douglas.
“We couldn’t be happier for Bud, who deserves this award and all the accolades that go along with it,” said Craig Kruckeberg, Minimizer CEO and chief visionary. “He really is one of the good guys.”
“Bud is an industry icon who is well-respected by everyone, has a wicked sense of humor and is genuinely fun to work with,” added Douglas.
