Nikon Sport Optics has announced that the company has promoted from its ranks two long-time employees with 25 years of combined experience. Randy Garrison has been elevated to the position of Associate General Manager of Sales and Operations and Adam Goess has been promoted to the position of Product Manager. The new titles and responsibilities are effective immediately.

Randy Garrison has been a key component in the success of Nikon's sales management team for the past nineteen years. His previous position was Senior National Sales & Marketing Manager and the new position will allow Garrison to play an even larger role in the overall direction of Nikon Sport Optics.

Garrison said, "I've always been firmly committed to Nikon and all of our industry partners and especially our customers. I look forward to playing a greater part in furthering the Nikon Sport Optics brand, strengthening its position within the industry and continuing to be a name in the optics industry that people can trust."

Adam Goess has been involved with Nikon product development for the past six years and most recently held the position of Assistant Manager of Product. In his new role, Goess will have increased opportunity in helping develop and refine sport optics products, bring them to market and plan and execute marketing initiatives.

"I'm excited to have this opportunity," said Goess. "Nikon Sport Optics has always strived to be an industry leader in innovation and we'll continue to do so. Our customers can expect the same level of quality and performance in our new products that made them loyal to us in the first place."
