Goldenrod Corporation, maker of web handling components for film and sheet plastic converting, announced its two top sales performers and top employee of the year.

Russ Roberts is Goldenrod’s Direct Salesman of the year for 2024, and Ken Davis emerged as Independent Rep of the year.

“Russ and Ken achieved new sales milestones for their respective territories,” says David Sullivan, Goldenrod’s vice president of sales. “Russ also led the direct sales team with the highest request for quotations (RFQ) total, while Ken led all independent reps in total RFQ’s.”

Roberts serves Wisconsin, Minnesota, northern Illinois, North and South Dakota and upper Michigan. Davis serves Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, southern New Jersey and Washington D.C.

Both Roberts and Davis have been with Goldenrod for over 20 years.

Goldenrod’s Employee of the Year award goes to Kathy Plasky. Known by customers as the welcoming voice of Goldenrod for more than 16 years, Kathy’s “spirit and dedication are examples of what makes Goldenrod customer service the best in the industry,” Sullivan says.

Some of Plasky’s other duties include record keeping, maintaining and distributing marketing materials and sales brochures, as well as purchasing. Plasky has also been instrumental in some of Goldenrod’s marketing campaigns, contributing to a concerted effort that has produced positive results for the company.
