Kutol Products Company recently announced the recipients of its 2024 awards recognizing outstanding manufacturer representative partners. These awards are based on 2024 sales performance including year-over-year percentage and dollar growth, increased penetration within targeted accounts, and number of dispenser placements.

Kutol’s Top Performing Agency Award went to Packaging Resources, Inc. (PRI/Pinnacle Sales & Marketing) based in Countryside, IL, which achieved an impressive 16% year-over-year increase in sales. PRI President Jeff Lukas and Sales Manager Marty Senour led the team in achieving this success by focusing on account-based growth. PRI has represented Kutol for eight years.

Their intentional approach to identifying and pursuing high-potential opportunities was instrumental to this success. WMC is a five-year partner of Kutol.
