Cali Bamboo Adds Bob Fish as Director of National Sales

Cali Bamboo has named industry veteran Bob Fish as its new Director of National Sales. Fish spent the last 30+ years at Shaw Industries, and most recently served as an Anderson/Tuftex Regional Vice President. His contributions to the company resulted in consistent sales growth and a stream of accolades, including Tuftex National Regional Vice President of the Year in 2017. He brings to the Cali team a wealth of industry experience in both the U.S. and Canada, and decades of close relationships with top flooring retailers.

Rich Mandel of Sterling Carpet and Flooring in Anaheim, CA is one such retailer who has worked with Fish for years. Speaking on the new move, he says, ā€œIā€™ve had some hall of famers over the years, and Bob is the best manager for driving business that ever called on me in my 30+ years in the industry. Iā€™m excited for him for the opportunity at Cali. I think the position heā€™s been given allows him to use his creativity more fully.ā€

ā€œThis company is known for our ability to work fast, smart, and with more agility than this industry is really accustomed to. Weā€™ve already proven ourselves to some amazing channel partners, and this renewed focus on strengthening the Cali leadership team means weā€™re even better positioned to service these relationships,ā€ said Cali President and CEO, Doug Jackson.

The rest of Jacksonā€™s sales team steering the omnichannel companyā€™s various vehicles includes Mike Belprez directing channel management, Tom Tidmore overseeing business development, Samantha Savitch heading the Loweā€™s team, and Chris Veety leading residential sales. The new moves follow a highly successful year which saw Cali hit over $100 million in revenue (21.8% growth) and the 10th straight year on the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies list.
