SPARKS, Nev. — The recently launched BPL Supplies is hitting the ground running with 10,000 square feet of state-of-the-art warehouse secured, BPL Supplies now has announced two industry veterans as part of their skilled team.
Solin Sandoval has joined the team as general manager. Sandoval will oversee all aspects of the company from the Sparks-based warehouse, webstore and shipping. With over 20 years of experience in supply chain and logistics, he has had roles in senior management overseeing multiple locations and departments. Sandoval received his Bachelor of Science degree in supply chain and logistics management from the University of Nevada, Reno.

A familiar name to the local promotional product industry is Jake Heckman who joins BPL Supplies as director of sales. With more than 25 years of experience, Heckman was practically born into the industry having worked at his family’s company where he made deliveries, buttons, hats, shirts and more. In the late ‘90s Heckman transitioned to sales and customer service roles. The family company, Ad Spec was established in 1948 with the Heckman’s taking ownership in the early ‘80s. In 2010 a well-known Reno company, Blue Moon Promotions, owned at the time by BPL Supplies founder Klaus Grimm, merged with Ad Spec. Now 10 years later Heckman and Grimm will bring affordable and creative promotional items back to northern Nevada.
BPL Supplies offers a new, affordable and local option for branded products. The Nevada-based corporation focuses on timely turnaround of products, performance guarantees, warehouse enterprise solutions and a substantial community reinvestment program.
