Nelson Petzold is retiring as Regional Vice President of Sales for NSI Industries after an 18-year career with the company. A veteran of the electrical industry for more than four decades, Petzold joined the company in 2006 when TORK was acquired by NSI.
“Nelson has been a mentor and friend to me over the last 10 years, and while I’m sad I won’t be working alongside him each day, I’m excited for this next chapter of his life,” said Tom Wallace, Executive VP of Sales. “Whatever Nelson decides to do next, I’m sure he will continue inspiring and making a positive impact on others.”
During his time with the company, Petzold worked tirelessly to increase sales and promote the value of working with his colleagues. His ability to build trust with and support his customers as they grew their own businesses is unmatched, and he felt an enormous amount of pride seeing them succeed. NSI will miss his leadership and knowledge as well as the advice he has given the sales and internal teams over the years.
“I always believed that NSI could be the company it is today, and I am proud to have watched it grow and succeed over these years,” Nelson said. “I am going to miss the many friendships I have developed within the company as well as with my customers, but I know that NSI and our partners are in great hands moving forward.”
