GRIMSBY, Ontario – Jan. 6, 2022 – Cimcorp, a manufacturer and integrator of turnkey robotic order fulfillment and tire-handling solutions, announces the addition of Adam Gurga, Sales Manager, and Collin Russell, Director of Business Development, to its North American sales team. With extensive backgrounds in supply chain, material handling, and automation, the two seasoned sales executives will foster new and existing client relationships to support Cimcorp’s growth strategy in the U.S. grocery distribution market.

“The need for automation is on the rise in the U.S. fresh food and grocery sector, as businesses face increasingly high customer expectations and unprecedented supply chain disruptions. At Cimcorp, we’re focused on growing our North American presence to satisfy this demand,” explained Derek Rickard, Director of Sales, Cimcorp Automation Ltd. “I am very excited to welcome Adam and Collin to the team, and am confident they will be tremendous assets in helping our clients solve their biggest fresh food distribution challenges.”


A motivated and results-driven sales professional, Adam Gurga boasts 14 years of experience in the supply chain, warehousing, and food & beverage industries. He is skilled in building long- term customer relationships, with a passion for delivering solutions that meet each client’s unique needs and objectives. Gurga’s extensive knowledge of reusable packaging methods will also prove invaluable in the grocery and fresh food space.
