CHRIS KOHLER HAS RETIRED FROM HIS POSITION AS SALES MANAGER AT HUTCHINGS MARINE PRODUCTS

Chris Kohler

Chris started at Hutchings in April of 1996 as a Sales Representative and took on the role of Sales Manager in 2001.  Chris’ personal experience as a partner and operating manager of Muskoka Harbour & Cove in the early 90’s gave him great insight as to how he could better serve his customers.  He could give his personal attention to customers, fellow employees, and strangers alike, creating a connection with them quickly.  He would go out of his way to ensure that he could get someone what they needed as soon as they needed it.
 
In his retirement Chris is planning on tackling farming on a larger scale as his next challenge.  All of us at Hutchings extend our sincerest thanks to Chris for his valuable efforts and selfless dedication over the last 18 years and wish him well.  He will be missed.
 
Anyone wanting to extend their well wishes to Chris can email him at chrisk@hutchingsmarine.com until April 15th.
