Hannibal Industries Appoints Chief Operations Officer
ESOP-owned Hannibal Industries, Inc. named Reed Reynolds as its chief operations officer (COO). Reynolds is a steel industry veteran that has more than 14 years of experience in sales and management positions. Reynolds' first day in this role will be March 12 and he will report directly to the president. Reynolds will be responsible to oversee the daily operation of the company while maintaining and establishing policies that promote the company culture and vision, especially concentrating on growth through efficiency and expansion.
