Spreetail, a leading global ecommerce company and the #1 oversize accelerator specializing in big-&-bulky logistics and marketplace management, is pleased to announce a transition in its executive team. Effective today, Joshua Ketter, formerly the CEO of Retail, will take over as the Global CEO. Brett Thome, who has been leading the company since 2011, will continue to play a pivotal role by shifting his full focus to strategic initiatives and building out our next two core service pillars. These new pillars will allow us to expand our ability to serve the evolving needs of brands well into the future.
