Haver & Boecker Niagara has appointed Steven Dery as vice-president of sales. Dery will lead the company’s commercial strategy across North America, helping mining and aggregates customers maximize efficiency through a full suite of equipment, technology and service solutions.
The company says the appointment correlates with its strong market growth; growth it expects Dery to help build upon, given the company’s recent momentum. It said that orders for new machines, parts and service are up by 40 per cent in North America. To meet this demand, staffing has increased by 10 per cent.
The company says Dery’s strategic vision, customer-focused approach and strong track record of sales and leadership will drive Haver & Boecker Niagara’s continued growth. Aware that the minerals and aggregates industries are essential to power the modern economy, Dery will leverage the strength of the North American sales team to ensure these sectors are fully equipped to prosper.
“Steven brings a rare combination of strategic vision and people-first leadership,” said Karen Thompson, president of Haver & Boecker Niagara’s North American, United Kingdom, Ireland and Australian operations. “His ability to lead high-performing teams and connect with others both personally and professionally will be instrumental for us to bring even greater value to the customers we serve. He understands how to build trust, lead teams and deliver results, all while keeping the customer at the centre. His experience aligns perfectly with our mission to be a true partner to our customers, not just a supplier.”
Dery brings leadership experience from the building materials sector to his new role, having navigated everything from boots-on-the-ground sales to managing national accounts and corporate strategy. His experience fostering long-term relationships aligns with the company’s philosophy that customers aren’t just working with a vendor but are in a lifelong partnership with full service and support.
“There’s a reason people stay with Haver & Boecker Niagara. The culture is collaborative, and the commitment to customers is real,” said Dery. “I’m excited to help our team and our customers achieve their goals. Success doesn’t come from product knowledge alone; it comes from transparency, trust and truly understanding what the customer needs to succeed.”
