Urban Crop Solutions appoints new sales manager for North American operations

Urban Crop Solutions appointments Doug Gamble as their North American Sales Manager. Doug has spent over 25 years in management, sales, and business development roles and is glad to bring his entrepreneurial experience and spirit to the position.

He joins UCS from the more traditional side of agriculture, having been raised on a dairy farm, which later transitioned into a large-scale Greenhouse operation. 

As the company’s first North American Sales Manager, Doug will lead the supply and delivery of UCS’s latest solution, the ModuleX plant factory, and ramp up the export of the company’s technology and environmentally beneficial solutions to urban farming in Canada and the United States. Doug will lead operations from the small town of Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada where his office, home, and family are located.
