Adams Magnetic Products Names National Account Manager

Irvine, Calif. (Aug. 2010) – Adams Magnetic Products Co. announces Ron Flores as its national account manager serving new customers' needs for soft ferrite cores and accessories. Reporting to Adams' General Manager Maria Loggia, he collaborates with the company's inside sales and engineering team to respond with quick-turn samples, prototypes and high-volume requests.

"Magnetics are key elements found in all kinds of products – from medical equipment and personal computers, to appliances and industrial equipment," notes Flores. "Adams has the expertise to help at any stage of a product's development from concept through production."

Flores' own experience in the magnetics industry spans 15 years. Most recently, he served in the role of business developer, achieving national brand recognition for foreign-made ferrite products and joined the top suppliers in the country. Previously, Flores was a supply-chain director and consultant for international companies in the power magnetics industry. He was responsible for the development of innovative, global supply-chain systems, technical sourcing, purchasing and material quality engineering teams.

One of Flores' focuses will be to expand Adams' support capabilities to include additional sources and services, such as VAC USA nanocrystalline cores and precision fabrication of exotic materials. "Timing for this new venture could not be better as market demand and lead times are climbing at an uncomfortable pace for U.S. buyers," says Flores.

Flores and his wife are avid kayakers and spend much of their time with their extended family, enjoying the beach, jazz music and all that Southern California has to offer.
