Swagelok Southeast Texas President, Chris Jones
He owns Swagelok Southeast Texas, a distributorship for Swagelok products. How did he do it? There are many options Jones doesn’t have. As a distributor, he has an exclusive relationship with Swagelok so he can’t add additional products or brands; he is locked into his territory boundaries and the customers who reside there; and price is discretionary but governed by market positioning of the brand.
