Facilitating Pattyn’s Strategic Expansion from the US to Canada

Pattyn's Strategic Expansion from U.S. to Canada

Client Overview

Pattyn is a leading provider of industrial automation solutions, renowned for their innovative and high-quality equipment that enhances packaging processes. Based in the United States, Pattyn has a strong market presence and a reputation for excellence in the industrial automation sector. In mid-2023, Pattyn sought to expand its footprint into the Canadian market, recognizing the potential for growth and the need for a dedicated sales force to drive this initiative.

The Challenge

Pattyn faced several challenges in their expansion efforts. They required a sales executive who could work remotely, yet remain an integral part of the team. This role demanded frequent travel across Canada and occasional trips to the U.S., necessitating a candidate with a deep understanding of the industrial automation industry and an established client base.

Additionally, Pattyn specified that the candidate should be based in Montreal, further narrowing the pool of potential hires. Despite their efforts over several months, Pattyn struggled to find the right fit and decided to partner with Quota Crushers Agency to leverage our expertise in specialized recruitment.
