BASF Names Guy Bargnes National Sales Director

BASF Automotive Refinish Solutions has announced the promotion of Guy Bargnes as National Sales Director. Bargnes will oversee all of BASF’s sales activities in the United States, Mexico and the Caribbean.

Bargnes has been involved in the refinish industry his entire career, starting in his family’s paint distribution business and continuing to his most recent position as BASF’s NAFTA Marketing Director.

A past president of the National Auto Body Council, Bargnes is widely recognized for his frequent participation in industry events and for championing causes that improve the Collision Industry’s image. In 2005, Bargnes received one of the industry’s highest honors when he was inducted into the Collision Repair Industry “Hall of Eagles.”

“Guy has long been a staunch supporter of the Collision Repair Industry," said Juan Carlos Ordonez, VP, Automotive Refinish Solutions, "and his background in distribution and depth of experience makes him an ideal choice to help ensure continuing success for our customers and our sales force."

BASF Corporation, headquartered in New Jersey, is the North American affiliate of BASF AG, Ludwigshafen, Germany. BASF employs about 16,000 people in North America and had sales of approximately $11.3 billion in 2005.
