HOLLAND, Mich. – Trendway Corp. has announced the appointment of Mark Rhoades to president. Rhoades replaces Bill Bundy, who served as interim president from July to October 2019. Jack Chance, who has been serving as Trendway chief financial officer, for the past six years, has been promoted to the expanded role of CFO and vice president of operations and customer experience. The company also hired Chris Tattersall and Kerry Ferguson as regional directors of sales.

“On behalf of the entire Fellowes Brand team, we’d like to congratulate Mark Rhoades and Jack Chance on their new leadership roles,” said John Fellowes, president and CEO of Fellowes Brands. “I’d also like to extend a sincere thank you to Bill Bundy as he completes his interim role as Trendway president. Bill’s guidance ensured a smooth and successful transition following Don Heeringa’s retirement.”

Bundy had served as Trendway’s President for nine years until his retirement in 2016.

In August, Fellowes Brands announced its acquisition of Trendway.

Rhoades will have full oversight of all Trendway operations, with a focus on expanding sales, optimizing manufacturing capacity and the ongoing integration into Fellowes Brands. Rhoades previously served as President of ESI from 2017 to 2018, after Fellowes Brand acquired the company in 2017.
