Charley Hale, Former CEO of FCX Performance, to Keynote Distribution M&A Executive Workshop
Austin, TX (PRWEB) August 28, 2017 -- During his FCX tenure, Hale was the architect of an aggressive mergers and acquisitions strategy, managing 25 acquisitions for this super-regional leader in the flow-control distribution market. Hale helped to grow FCX Performance from a $15-million regional distributor to a more than $350-million business with near-national market coverage.
At the Distribution M&A Executive Workshop, Hale will present “M&A Best Practice: What I Wish I Knew 20 Years Ago!”
