Marcone Group, a leading national distributor of appliance, HVAC, plumbing, commercial kitchen and pool/spa parts and equipment, has announced that marketing executive Mary Jo Hann has been named to the “Top Women in HVAC” list by ACHR News.

As vice president of enterprise marketing, Hann was one of 13 women nationwide selected by the publication for their contributions to the traditionally male-dominated industry.

“There’s no doubt that Mary Jo is a standout within the Marcone organization, so it’s gratifying to see the industry recognize her in this way as well,” said Asterios Satrazemis, Marcone’s CEO. 

A 30-year marketing veteran and resident of Chicago’s southwest suburbs, Hann has been active in the HVAC world for nearly a decade, since joining Illinois-based Munch’s Supply to lead marketing efforts. There, she worked to build the brand and drive sales through efforts such as consistent training, traditional marketing plans, customer recognition programs and more.

Now, she oversees a staff of 20 and marketing efforts for Marcone’s 12 individual HVAC distributors, three plumbing companies and appliance parts, commercial kitchen and pool/spa verticals in both the United States and Canada.

In addition, Hann has served on the HARDI marketing council for eight years, including as chairwoman for the past four years.
