Hunter Industries is proud to announce that Anthony Italia has recently earned the title of FX Luminaire’s Sales Manager of Year for 2011. FX Luminaire is Hunter’s low voltage landscape lighting brand, which it acquired in 2009. Tony handles the Mid-Atlantic territory for FX, which spans five states, and is often considered one of the most competitive regions in the industry.
What makes this honor particularly impressive for Mr. Italia is that FX Luminaire is the newest brand to hit the Mid-Atlantic region, and therefore, the least known. Mr. Italia attributes his success with FX to, “an amazing pool of distributors & contractors who are not afraid to try the next best thing. Product loyalty is very hard to come by, especially in such a short time. FX has gained a terrific presence in the Mid-Atlantic and will continue to grow with every technological leap that we make. .” He was given the award in January from Hunter Industries CEO Richard Hunter. To commemorate his efforts, he received an engraved black piano finish wall clock—a longtime Hunter tradition associated with recognizing outstanding achievements.
While Mr. Italia is thrilled with his success so far, he is looking forward to a great 2012, and plans on continuing to do all he can to help FX Luminaire become the number one name in landscape lighting both in and out f his region. He is currently based in Oxford, PA, and when he’s not spreading the good word about FX Luminaire, Tony enjoys being in the outdoors. He is an avid fisherman, enjoys camping with his family and working in his garden and fruit orchard.
