Gary Grant Joins Acme Brick’s American Tile and Stone
Gary Grant has been named general manager of American Tile and Stone (ATS), replacing the retiring Robert “Bob” Hendon who served as ATS president for nearly 4 years following a 40-year career in the flooring products industry.
“For a little more than three and one-half years, Bob has worked tirelessly to create new customer relationships, reengineer our product offerings, and build an energized sales team,” said Dennis Knautz, Acme president and CEO. “Given his vast experience in the tile industry, we have agreed that he will be available to us on a consulting basis through the end of 2018. Soon after Bob arrived, he brought Gary on board. He came to us with considerable experience in the building materials industry, serving in varied managerial roles at major companies. In my conversations with Bob, he highly recommended that Gary succeed him. After discussing American Tile and Stone’s future opportunities and challenges with Gary, I concluded that Bob had made a solid recommendation.”
