Stertil-Koni names new Midwest regional sales manager

Stertil-Koni, the Stevensville, Maryland-based provider of heavy-duty hydraulic bus and truck lifts, announced Jan. 2 that Chris Murabito has been named Midwest regional sales manager for the company.

In his new post, Murabito brings more than 20 years of sales management and business development experience to Stertil-Koni. He succeeds Jim Sylvester, who recently retired following 22 years with the company.

Murabito will manage a territory that includes Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and parts of Wisconsin and will support Stertil-Koni’s exclusive distributor network serving these states.

Most recently, Murabito served as a Midwest territory account manager for a supplier of vehicle fluids and equipment. He was responsible for sales, new business development and managing customer relationships. While there, Murabito increased sales in his region by 32 percent over a three-year period, Stertil-Koni says.

“Chris is a seasoned pro with a strong, established track record in developing new business and growing existing customer relationships. He embraces the Stertil-Koni dedication to delivering exceptional customer service. We are excited about his professionalism and skill set and look forward to him contributing to the continuing success of our rapidly growing company,” Jean DellAmore, president of Stertil-Koni USA, says.
