DuChâteau has selected Joseph Patterson as its new East Coast Regional Manager.
In his new role, Patterson will oversee the company’s East Coast sales team, working with 11 territory managers as DuChâteau expands into new markets in the Eastern United States. The company recently introduced five new luxury vinyl plank collections, which capture the natural beauty of wood and stone, while offering a remarkably durable and low-maintenance flooring option. DuChâteau’s luxury vinyl collection are generating increasing interest from architects and designers in commercial settings, such as hotels, hospitals, office buildings and restaurants.
He will be responsible for coaching, training and the developing new incentive programs to drive sales and increase market share in 19 states. Patterson is based in Atlanta and reports to Todd Gates, DuChâteau’s vice president residential sales.
“Joseph has extensive experience managing successful teams in multiple sales channels that will help introduce our new product lines to both commercial and residential customers,” Gates said. “DuChateau started increasing production earlier this year based on growing interest in luxury vinyl products, including in major markets in the east. After our first conversation with Joseph about bigger challenges, we knew his history of success and energy would drive market penetration wherever customers are looking to be at the forefront of emerging style trends.”
Patterson joined DuChâteau in 2016 as a residential territory manager and quickly established himself as key member of the sales team and top performer. Prior to joining DuChâteau, he was a regional sales manager for Armstrong Flooring Inc., where he managed several direct reports and relationships with distributors in the greater Atlanta region, while driving sales in multiple flooring categories.
Gates said Patterson’s appointment is another crucial step as DuChâteau continues to build an elite sales team across the country.
