The Top 40 supplier says the pair has nearly 40 years of combined industry experience.

More promotions at the top are occurring at one of the promotional products industry’s largest suppliers.

A week after announcing the promotions of Jeffrey Hassler to president and Mason Lapsker to CEO, Top 40 supplier Starline (asi/89320) has now shared that it’s elevating Nicole Tasca to senior vice president of client engagement and Brian DeBottis to vice president of strategic accounts for North America.

Both are longtime employees of the Grand Island, NY-headquartered company, having nearly 40 years of combined experience.

Tasca was most recently vice president of sales administration. In her new role, she’ll oversee front-end operations for Starline. DeBottis previously held the position of national accounts director and in the past served as a treasurer and director for the Michigan Promotional Professionals Association (MiPPA).

“Nicole and Brian have proven time and time again that they are the absolute best in their respective roles, combining years of Starline knowledge with the ability to constantly evolve to fit today’s ever-changing promotional environment,” said Brian Porter, the supplier’s chief revenue officer.

Based on reported 2022 North American promotional product revenue of $57.9 million, Starline ranked 33rd on Counselor’s most recent list of the largest distributors in the industry.
