Paxton Appoints New Area Managers to U.S. Sales Team

Paxton has made an exciting update to their US sales team structure to provide a laser focused approach across the United States.

Paxton has formally appointed Erin Fujioka, Keith West and Zachery Shatto as new area sales managers to expand Paxton’s world-class customer service, bringing leading security technology to more regions. This coincides with a rise in demand for their products and security systems across the country. Their goal is to streamline the sales process while providing additional support for customers.

Having served as Paxton’s regional sales managers, it was a natural progression for these individuals to move into the area sales manager role.

Jonathan Lach, Paxton’s vice president of sales, said: “I am very proud of Erin, Keith, and Zach, for their continued exceptional performance. They bring a high level of experience to Paxton and our customers.”

Fujioka began her journey with Paxton in 2018. She will be supporting her new team and Paxton installers in the west coast and north central U.S. regions moving-forward. “This change represents Paxton’s growth and investment in the US market. This updated sales team structure increases our ability to best support our team and customers,” she said.

Keith West has been with Paxton for nearly six years and will be now working on projects in the northeast. "It is a very exciting time at Paxton Inc. and this promotion is just an indicator of Paxton’s on-going commitment to the US market. I am looking forward to being a part of what I know will be a very successful journey," West said.

Zachery Shatto is responsible for the mid-southeast, southeast, and south-central United States. “For me, it’s a new opportunity to expand on my skills and help shape positive change in the security industry. I love being a part of this team,” he said.

Paxton is exhibiting at ISC West, which takes place at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, on March 29-31. Customers can meet the new sales team along with the rest of the team at booth #14075. Paxton provides free installation training for security dealers across the United States, enabling them to install Paxton products with confidence and grow their own security businesses.
