Sock Industry Shaker: Mark Albers

Renfro rocks the socks industry. As a 95-year-old manufacturer of socks and hosiery, Renfro is an international company with multi-million dollar sales. The company manufactures for some of the hottest, most recognizable names in the sock industry, such as Carhartt, HOTSOCKS, and New Balance.

Renfro is in the upper echelons of the entire apparel industry, so it’s no surprise that Mark Albers is in charge. Mark is a leader with expert sales strategies and business acumen that pave the way for continued, multi-million dollar success. As the top executive in worldwide sock manufacturing, Mark is considered the ultimate mover and shaker of the sock industry.

30 Years of History

Mark Albers has been on both sides of sales reps, so he knows what results look like better than anyone. He began his career back in 1985, when Joe Sheridan hired him as a sales rep. From there, Mark would go on to become the finest footwear and apparel rep in the entire industry.

Mark credits much of the success with Renfro‘s sales reps to Joe’s impeccable track record. Joe is an expert at matching companies with the best sales reps in the country. He knows that having the right team is the key to mega sales nationwide, and in Renfro‘s case, internationally.
