AUSTIN, TX – After moving to a new location here, Le Maitre Ltd North America recently changed its name to Le Maitre USA LLC, with operations director John McDowell becoming president and account manager Randy Hicks joining the Le Maitre USA team.
"Everyone at Le Maitre North America is really excited about how quickly things are moving for us since we set up directly in the U.S. just 18 months ago," said McDowell. We have a terrific facility here in Austin Texas, with a team of excellent people, and Randy Hicks joining the team is yet another bonus. We look forward to 2011 being a great year".
"I am really excited about the opportunity to work with the people and products at Le Maitre. The ProStage and Pyroflash pyrotechnic brands are very well established in the North American market and the new VS low smoke products are a great addition to the ProStage II line. I am looking forward to the possibilities these new products will create for pyrotechnic show designers," said Hicks.
Le Maitre's North American subsidiary was first established in 2009. The parent company started marketing their PyroFlash line of encapsulated pyrotechnics some 30 years ago.
