St. Louis, Missouri-based Marcone — a distributor of appliance repair, HVAC, plumbing, commercial kitchen and pool/spa parts and equipment — announced July 25 that it has added three seasoned executives to its team.

Tim Shearer Named President of Marcone Plumbing 

Tim Shearer was named President of Marcone Plumbing. Previously, he has led teams in residential construction and sales, along with more than 20 years in senior roles with Ferguson and Moen.

“Our ability to accelerate sales growth while adding value to our customers through an integrated sales and distribution network is critical,” Shearer said. “Our growth in plumbing will be driven by three key pillars: expanded plumbing offering across the Marcone distribution network, distribution growth for Wolverine Brass and Speakman brands through regional plumbing distributors and new product development driven by customer and consumer insights.”

Jon Kirby Joins Marcone as Executive Vice President of Supply Chain

As the new Executive Vice President of Supply Chain, Jon Kirby will emphasize agility within Marcone’s supply chain so that it’s positioned for further expansion, Marcone officials said in a news release. Kirby brings nearly 35 years of supply chain experience from major global companies that include Barclays and AstraZeneca.

“Our overriding responsibility is to ensure that we have product to sell to our customers and maximize our ability to drive profitable growth,” Kirby said. “We are implementing standardized processes that will enable us to truly leverage our scale, uplift our capabilities, drive meaningful integration and create greater agility to support our business today and in the future.”

Marcone Promotes Jason Scott to Executive Vice President of Operations

Former Chief Operations Officer for Marcone Plumbing Jason Scott was promoted to Executive Vice President of Operations. In this role, he will focus on safety, operational productivity and delivering parts and equipment from Marcone’s full catalog with speed and accuracy.

In June, Marcone added two new warehouses in Jacksonville, Florida, and Louisville, Kentucky, and debuted a new corporate website.

“Marcone has been in rapid growth mode during the past two years, starting first as an appliance parts company before expanding into the HVAC, plumbing, commercial kitchen and pool and spa industries,” officials said in a news release.
