Five years after leaving the linen, uniform and facility services industry to develop and sharpen his sales skills, Patrick Cox is back as a regional sales manager for Lavatec Laundry Technology, Beacon Falls, CT. Responsible for the southeast region of the United States, he is based in the New Orleans area and reports to company President Mark Thrasher.
Cox has 10 years of sales and engineering experience. He earned a geological engineering degree from the University of Mississippi, and worked in that industry before joining Pellerin Laundry Machinery Sales Co. as a project manager in 2016. After five successful years at Louisiana CAT, Cox was ready for a new challenge.
“When I left the laundry industry in 2018, I always knew I would be back,” he said. “I needed to gain more sales experience to get where I wanted to go. At Pellerin, I paid close attention to what worked well and applied those qualities to my recent success.”
Cox and his wife, Jennifer, have been married for nine years and are the parents of three children.
