Meet Jeff Garb

Jeff entered the rep world soon after graduating from Hobart & William Smith Colleges in 1983 with a B.A. in Liberal Arts. He began as a salesman for another rep firm covering a small portion of New England.

After several successful years of road sales, building a territory for another principal, he started his own firm.  He then had to contend with finding his own lines, covering a wider territory, and hiring other sales people.

In 1997, he expanded his territory to the New York and New Jersey markets. Subsequently, he as earn the honors of those states being the highest volume states for many of the factories he represents.

Throughout the years, he has carefully added lines and additional sales people, bringing the total full time sales force to 14 people.  He continues to work with key accounts, manage reps, and select product lines.
