Advanced Turf Solutions has added Chip Houmes to its team as a technical sales advisor. In his new role, Houmes will provide technical support and sales training across the company.
Houmes is well-respected in the green industry and brings 36 years of experience to Advanced Turf Solutions, including stints at Precision Laboratories and The Aquatrols Company.
“Chip’s expertise and deep product knowledge have earned the trust of many across our industry, and we're fortunate to have him on our team,” Advanced Turf Solutions CEO Scott Brame said.
Houmes looks forward to using his expertise to grow and enhance our HydroPak line of surfactants, which enable superintendents, lawn care operators, and sports field managers to make the most of rainfall and irrigation water.
“After working as a supplier to ATS, I'm excited for the opportunity to be part of the team,” Houmes said. “From the outside, it always appeared like a big family, and now that I’m on the inside, it’s exactly what I thought it would be. I’m very excited to help grow the business.”
