Milwaukee-based concrete crushing and recycling equipment maker Lippmann has added Dillon Borchardt as territory sales manager for North America.
In the role, Borchardt will manage relationships with dealers, provide support to customers and contribute to the company's sales efforts in the United States, Mexico and Canada.
Borchardt brings seven years of experience in the aggregates and construction industries, with a background in both the technical and sales aspects of the field. He previously worked for two other industrial manufacturers where he focused on sales engineering, applications engineering, concept drawings, system layouts and materials testing.
“My background has largely been on the technical side of sales, working closely with dealers and regional sales managers,” Borchardt says. “Moving into this role at Lippmann felt like a natural next step for me, as I was looking to transition more into the business side of sales.”
Borchardt has a mechanical engineering degree, which he credits for giving him an understanding of the technical aspects of the industry. According to the equipment maker, he also knew early on he enjoyed working with people in addition to design engineering.
“While the technical side is important, I’ve always enjoyed building relationships and helping customers find the best solution for their needs,” Borchardt says. “I’m excited to bring that passion to Lippmann, where I can continue to support customers and dealers in finding the right equipment for their operations.”
Lippmann says its leadership team is enthusiastic about Borchardt’s industry expertise and hands-on experience, saying his technical background and drive make him an ideal fit for the role.
“Dillon’s extensive knowledge of the aggregate and construction industries, combined with his proactive approach, made it clear he was the right person for this position,” says John Megarry, commercial product director at Lippmann. “He’s hit the ground running and has already begun forging strong relationships in the field. We’re fortunate to have someone of his caliber join our team.”
Founded in 1923, Lippmann designs and makes aggregates processing equipment that includes a line of primary jaw crushers, primary and secondary impact crushers and cone crushers, vibrating grizzly feeders, two-stage crushing systems and ancillary products.
