Blog Post: Plastics News Recognizes PHOENIX's Katherine Trost

Congratulations to Katherine Trost, Director of Sales at PHOENIX, who was named a Woman Breaking the Mold by Plastics News:

Although she is now on the sales side — as the director of sales for Aurora, Ill.-based Phoenix Closures Inc., which specializes in injection molded closures — Trost said she still loves being out on the manufacturing floor: "Is it wrong that one of my favorite smells is melted plastic?"

Trost manages the distribution and inside sales channels and works closely with distribution partners to train their sales and sourcing teams on injection molding, lining materials and general closure manufacturing. She also works with nearly all of Phoenix's cross-functional teams, including marketing, engineering and quality.

Trost is part of the National Association of Container Distributors' Industry Advisory Council. She was awarded the Phoenix Salesperson of the Year for 2020 in addition to other awards from distribution partners.
