Pelco hires two new directors

EDMOND — Pelco Products Inc. recently announced the addition of two business development professionals to its already talented business team. Brad Marlow and Paul Koenig have joined the Edmond-based business in recent weeks.

Marlow joins Pelco having spent more than 20 years selling utility equipment to municipalities and utilities in Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico. In his new role as director of Business Development for Utility Sales, Marlow will be primarily responsible for expanding Pelco Products Inc.’s business to utilities across North America. “Brad brings a unique capability and insight to our team with his extensive knowledge of publicly owned and privately held utilities,” said Steve Parduhn, an owner of Pelco.  

Koenig, a relative newcomer to the traffic industry, brings his skill of cultivating new business and expanding existing business to Pelco as director of Business Development for Traffic Sales. Koenig held similar roles in heavy equipment and land acquisition companies, as well as an extensive analytical financial background. “Paul is a quick learner and will bring a fresh perspective to our team as he helps lead the growth of business to new and existing customers in the traffic industry,” Parduhn said.

Pelco sets the stage to expand its business in two different yet complementary industries.

“The steps we have taken in bringing Brad and Paul to our team is an indication of the confidence and commitment we have in our ability to be a dominant provider of high quality, innovatively designed components for the traffic and utility industries in North America,” Parduhn said.
