Multiple appointments reflect PowerTrunk's success in the North American market.

PowerTrunkTM Inc., a global leader in TETRA and P25 Land Mobile Radio (LMR) design, manufacture and implementation, has appointed Jose M. Martin as Chief Executive Officer. Additional recent appointments of Carlos Fernandez as Vice President of Business Development and David Torres as Director of Sales Canada are further testimony of the company's growth and success in the North American market.
 
Mr. Martin is a recognized land mobile radio industry pioneer. Since joining PowerTrunk's parent company, Teltronic S.A.U., fourteen years ago, he led the company's commercial expansion across the globe. For the last four years, in his role as Chief Operating Officer of PowerTrunk, Mr. Martin has spearheaded the acceptance of the TETRA standard by regulatory bodies in the United States and Canada, revolutionizing these land mobile radio markets. In addition, Mr. Martin has been the driving force behind PowerTrunk's trailblazing implementations of the first ever TETRA land mobile radio networks in both the United States and Canada.
 
Two other major appointments demonstrate PowerTrunk's commitment to the North American land mobile radio market. Carlos Fernandez joined the company as Vice President of Business Development responsible for establishing and expanding relationships in the transportation and utilities markets in North America. Prior to PowerTrunk Mr. Fernandez worked in Europe and Latin America for multiple global TETRA manufacturers and system integrators. He brings a wealth of experience in land mobile radio including technical sales, project management, optimization engineering and system design.
 
David Torres joined PowerTrunk as Director of Sales for Canada. Mr. Torres brings over ten years of experience introducing complex technical solutions to the public safety, transportation and utilities markets in North America and has extensively worked with major P25 and TETRA manufacturers. He has an in-depth understanding of not only the current land mobile radio competitive landscape but also future trends in wireless communications affecting the buying and decision-making processes.
