Merlo America added Jerry Donahue to its sales team, overseeing the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic territory. His territory spans Maryland to Maine, including Long Island, New York and Pennsylvania. Merlo officials say Donahue brings a wealth of experience to the role, having previously managed high-value equipment sales projects across North America and internationally.
Donahue began his career in manufacturing as a tool and mold maker before transitioning to capital equipment sales, handling numerous high-profit projects. His career has taken him around the globe, working across North America, Australia, Europe and the Middle East.
“Jerry’s experience and approach really stand out,” says Cole Renken, general manager of Merlo America. “He understands the importance of being present with dealers and customers, listening to their needs and supporting them in a practical, hands-on way. We’re excited to have him on the team as we continue building momentum and strengthening relationships across the Northeast and beyond.”
Since joining the company, Donahue has engaged with dealers and participated in several industry events, including CONEXPO in Las Vegas.
