Grote Industries has brought Kevin Cornelius onboard as a new business development manager for its Harness and Power Delivery business.

An experienced leader, Cornelius has a proven history of growing sales and increasing profitability. He has a hands-on approach, both in the field and with day-to-day operations, and is always looking for ways to improve efficiency and design.

“Kevin is going to be a huge asset to our team,” said John Grote, global vice president of sales and marketing. “Having worked in the lighting system industry, he already has an in-depth knowledge of the product line… and is poised to leverage that expertise for our family of products and help take them to the next level.”

With a strong background in manufacturing, design and operations, Cornelius will be responsible for managing Grote’s Power Delivery product lines, including developing and launching all new product projects and direct growth.

“Kevin will continue our long tradition of developing world-class products that set the industry standard,” said Grote.
