Marathon Equipment Names Veteran to Position

Marathon Equipment Co., Vernon, AL, has hired Joe Szany as director of Horizontal Baling Systems Sales. His primary job at Marathon will be to develop the next generation of baling equipment based on market trends and needs.

“We are basically messengers of the market place,” said Szany. “My job is to respond to the market by listening to the customer. Customers buy what they want, not necessarily what manufacturers market. I look forward to helping Marathon become the name people think of when they think of the baling industry leader.”

Marathon manufactures a wide range of recycling products such as Two-Ram balers, Open-end Auto-ties, Closed-end balers, and balers for specific applications and budgets. One of Szany’s responsibilities will be to tie-in Marathon’s ancillary products such as conveyor systems with the horizontal baler line.

Marathon’s headquarters and main manufacturing facility is located in Vernon, AL, with other plants in Clearfield, PA, Yerington, NV, Fayette, AL, and Leeds, AL. Additional information about the company is available on their web site at www.MarathonEquipment.com  and www.ReductionSolutions.com.
