LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (BRAIN) — Orbea has tapped Matthew Smith to become the brand's USA country manager. The position became effective on Monday.
Smith takes the job following the move of Gonzalo Garcia De Salazar to Spain to become Orbea's global sales director last year. Smith is a former regional Orbea sales rep and USA sales manager.
"It's the culmination of years of enjoyable work, and it's going to be an exciting new chapter," said Smith. "One of my favorite aspects of working with Orbea is the opportunity to confront challenges and grow in a supportive environment. I have a strong sense that the current success of Orbea and the frankly awesome team we have assembled here will make the road ahead fun and rewarding as we grow the brand together."
"It's a great move for Orbea and Matthew is going to do a terrific job. We are happy to welcome Matthew to Little Rock and look forward to this new era," said Gonzalo Garcia De Salazar.
