Kodlin USA Partners with Brands That Shine
Morgan Hill, CA based Kodlin USA Inc. has partnered with Brands That Shine to build a U.S. dealer network education and training function as Kodlin USA continues to grow. In further news, in addition to Kodlin's established relationship with North American distributor HardDrive, Kodlin has recently signed a distribution agreement with Janesville, WI based distributor Drag Specialties.
Headed up by former Custom Chrome and Kuryakyn man Holger Mohr as President and co-founder of Kodlin USA, Holger states that "I have always been impressed with Jessica Shine's passion for the powersports industry in general, and for her V-twin industry parts and accessory sales and marketing expertise in particular.
"Her positive attitude, great dealer network contacts and relationships, and her knowledge and understanding of how our market's channels operate, her experience with all the levels of the distributors' sales organizations and her professional reputation and work attitude are a perfect addition to our team." The recent addition of Gunnar Heinemeyer to the Brands that Shine team will provide additional expertise in distributor/vendor relations.
Jessica added: "I am looking forward to working with the Kodlin team and to educate hundreds of reps and dealer staff about the product line. While headquartered in the US, we know the Kodlin roots are in Germany and that the company has an uncompromising focus on high-quality engineering and manufacturing.
"That gives my company the confidence that we will be promoting some of the best quality products you can find on the market today and that dealers will see minimal to no returns because Kodlin products just don't fail."
What started as a line of M-8 Softail oriented products has grown into a full lighting, suspension, body and controls category for Touring, Sportster S and even Pan America models. "Kodlin USA is going to continue to grow the product portfolio in the years to come," says Holger, "and now dealers can look forward to the investment in the Kodlin line receiving a level of first class support that will help dealers to grow their sales and make the Kodlin line an important profit center for their stores."
