The first to hold the newly created position, Ferris is based in Hong Kong and will focus on servicing Asia pacific clients. Ferris also will develop and service new accounts on mainland China as well as manage other sales channels throughout Asia. “Our U.S.- based customers — Hilton, Hyatt, Carlson, Marriott, Wyndham and others — demand our presence in China/India. We’re there to support their growth. With Jennifer’s in-depth, first-hand knowledge of China and other key Asian markets, we are confident our clients and their guests will benefit not only from our superior products and quality customer service, but from our ability to provide expert assistance as they navigate new territories,” said John Foley, Vice President of Safemark Systems. “We are thrilled to have her as part of the Safemark team.”

Ferris brings to Safemark a thorough knowledge of the Asia Pacific marketplace as well as business development experience for companies including Moen China Ltd., an America-based producer of bathroom and kitchen faucets and bath accessories, and Avery Dennison Roll Materials Asia Pacific, a leader in pressure-sensitive products. For both companies, Ferris managed sales and marketing efforts, led sales teams, assisted in developing and launching new products, designed sales tools and expanded sales into new territories.

“The hospitality industry in Asia is growing at an enormous rate especially in markets such as China, India and Macau,” said Ferris. “This growth represents a great opportunity for Safemark and I’m excited to be associated with this dynamic company bringing a competitive product that offers innovative solutions to the industry. I’m looking forward to leveraging Safemark’s established relationships into the Asian region and building new ones.”
