Phil Celia Named Crown Eastern Regional Sales Manager

Crown International reported that Phil Celia has recently
joined the company to serve as eastern regional sales manager. Celia reports to
Deb Frantom, Crown’s director of
U.S. sales.
A familiar face to the professional audio industry, Celia is
best known for his 14-year tenure with Fostex
America, where he spent the past
five years as general manager. Prior to Fostex, Celia had worked in pro audio
sales and as a recording engineer.
“We are absolutely elated to have Phil as part of our
organization,” offers Frantom. “As a 30-year veteran of the pro audio
and music industries, he has an excellent background in sales, marketing,
manufacturing, international business and general management. Plus, as an
engineer and musician, he truly understands things from the end user’s
perspective as well. Again, we’re thankful to have him here at Crown and
eagerly look forward to his leadership in our eastern region.”
Operating out of a satellite office in Hanover,
New Hampshire, Celia oversees Crown’s
independent representative network handling the manufacturer’s eastern
territory, stretching from Maine to
Florida. Aside from
working with reps and the dealers in their respective territories, he is also
being called upon to provide personal support for consultants, contractors and
end users.
“Crown has such an outstanding heritage,” notes
Celia, “and I’m pleased to be considered an asset to the company. I do
agree that my years of experience in this business have well prepared me for
this new role, and I am excited about the opportunity to help grow Crown’s
relationships with its reps, dealers and customers.”
