Consumer technology authority and wholesale electronics distributor, Petra Industries, has announced the appointment of Martin Puleo as the company’s new Chief Financial Officer. Puleo brings more than 20 years of experience in senior-level financial management across manufacturing, automotive, professional services, and retail industries.
“Martin’s collaborative leadership style and entrepreneurial way of thinking are a perfect match to our company’s values,” said Tate Morgan, Petra President. “Martin’s background includes leadership roles at both privately held companies and global organizations. He thinks like an owner and encourages others to do the same, and his ability to work on all aspects of finances and forecasting is critical to our company’s growth. We are excited to have him on the Petra team.”
Puelo joins Petra from Struktol Company of America, an Ohio manufacturer, where he was CFO. Puleo has consistently delivered proven results in establishing, organizing, and managing finance departments while successfully meeting deadlines, quality standards, budgets, and maintaining relationships with senior management.
“What sold me on Petra were the people,” said Puleo. “I have wanted to move south for a few years and was looking for the right opportunity. Petra’s management team has made me feel welcome from the start. As CFO, managing assets means working with both numbers and people to achieve growth and profitability. “Not only does Petra have hundreds of vendor partners and thousands of SKUs to track, but there is also an ever-expanding and very diverse customer base. I look forward to working with our finance team so Petra can continue to grow, thrive, and navigate the shifting retail landscape.”
