Viracon Welcomes New Sales Representative for Western Canada

Ouellette will supply Viracon glass products to western Canada.

Ouellette boasts more than 35 years of sales experience in the glass industry. His career began at PPG, where he eventually served as Director of Sales for their Montreal distribution center. From 1990-2008, Ouellette enjoyed stints at Glaverbec, AFG/AGC Glass and Bronco Industries. He won five major sales awards with AFG/AGC, including the top North American Salesperson in 2006. 



In 2008, Ouellette started TGI Technical Glass Inc. – a provider of hard-to-find or complicated glass items for the contract glazing industry. Now, the company includes Viracon products in its roster.



“We’re thrilled to welcome Jacques to the Viracon team,” says Garret Henson, Vice President of Sales for Viracon. “His strong relationships with architects and glazing contractors in western Canada will allow us to effectively promote Viracon in the region. The success he’s had with TGI Technical Glass Inc. speaks to the success Viracon will enjoy from his expertise.”



“I very much enjoy the culture of Viracon,” says Ouellette. “It’s a positive, dynamic organization that I’m honored to have TGI Technical Glass Inc. represent. This opportunity allows me to deal directly with architects, and I’m looking forward to working with all kinds of building influencers into the design stage of projects.”
