## Story

PARKERSBURG, W.Va., March 14, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - Company officials announce the appointment of Tom Huntington as the new President of Woodcraft Supply, LLC.

A former Executive Vice President of Joyride Coffee, Tom currently resides in Aberdeen, Maryland, with his wife Sandy and their daughter Hailey (10). They will be relocating to the Parkersburg area. His first day at Woodcraft was February 26.

"Tom comes to Woodcraft as a performance-driven sales leader with a wealth of experience in sales, franchisee relationships, channel development, and P&L responsibility for multiple retail and consumer products organizations. Tom is an excellent communicator and hands-on leader with a proven track record building best-in-class businesses, and we have every confidence he will do the same here," Woodcraft owners Tres Ross and Spencer Ross wrote in a joint company announcement.

Tom holds a Bachelor's in Business Management and Marketing from Salisbury University, as well as an MBA in Strategic Leadership from the University of Delaware.

"I look forward to working with our internal company team, franchisees, and business partners to grow this incredible brand." Tom said

"Additionally, my dad was an Eagle Scout and woodworking hobbyist, so Woodcraft was the logical place to get holiday and birthday gifts (often last minute on my way home for the holidays). So I already had an affinity for the brand."

Tom has been a long-time supporter of Habitat for Humanity and Humane Society. He also enjoys "just about anything outdoors: boating, fishing, surfing or coaching (no longer playing!) rugby."
