Warns Joins Watchfire as VP of On-Premise Sales

Watchfire Signs (Danville, IL, www.watchfiresigns.com), a manufacturer of digital on-premise and outdoor LED signs, has hired Dave Warns as VP of on-premise sales. He has 20 years experience as a sales executive, most recently as VP of industrial sales for Standard Register Co., where he led a staff of nearly 50 who generated $80 million in annual sales. He also has held senior-level positions with AutoZone and Cintas Corporation.

The Army veteran graduated from The United States Military Academy (West Point) and later earned an MBA from Harvard University.

In May, Watchfire broke ground on an expanded manufacturing and office facility, adding 110,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space and 17,000 sq. ft. of office space in Danville to accommodate the company’s anticipated growth.
