Charlotte, North Carolina-based RELiON Battery appointed Eric Lindquist to the company’s newly established chief operating officer role.
As an executive management team member, Lindquist brings more than 30 years of expertise in “leading, implementing and improving” business operations.
“Eric’s breadth of operations, sales, marketing and business management experience will be instrumental to RELiON as we enter the next phase of corporate growth,” the company’s CEO, Paul Hecimovich, said. “RELiON is committed to leading the world’s transition to lithium drop-in energy storage. Eric’s proven track record makes him the right leader to spearhead our key growth strategies.”
Prior to joining the battery supplier, Lindquist was the Edco Enterprises CEO. RELiON stated he formerly led the company in a new market strategy, revamping the supply chain process and improving customer connectivity. The moves led to a 40% increase in revenue and operating profit.
Previously, Lindquist served as the president of Entropy Solutions, developing and securing funding for the start-up of a bio-specialty organization. Earlier in his career, Lindquist held integral roles at Polaris, Nike and Wilson Sporting Goods.
