Newberg, Ore.—A to Z Wineworks announces today the expansion of its sales force. Ron Mertz, President of Sales notes, “As we continue to lead the charge for Oregon wine category growth, the addition of sales resources underscores our commitment to sustainable growth for our national business. We remain fully committed to provide our trade partners best-in-class service on behalf of the A to Z and REX HILL brands.”

A to Z Wineworks has recently created three new sales roles in support of our commercial execution, one of which is the position of Southeaster Regional Manager: Laura Standley has been named Regional Manager for the winery’s Southeastern Region.
