Equipment and parts distributor Parts Town Unlimited has announced the appointment of two seasoned executives to its global leadership team, reinforcing its ongoing commitment to technological innovation, digital transformation, and global scale. The strategic leadership updates introduce a new chief information officer (CIO) to spearhead the company’s digital initiatives and a new chief accounting officer to guide global financial operations, mergers, and enterprise readiness.

The high-level appointments come a little more than a year after Bill Geary stepped into the top role as CEO of Parts Town Unlimited. Geary emphasized the strategic value of both executive hires in an official corporate statement, pointing to their respective backgrounds in leveraging advanced technology and managing complex financial transformations as vital components for the company’s future trajectory.

"Pat’s proven ability to turn technology into a strategic growth engine and unlock the full potential of AI-driven innovation, combined with Kristi’s deep expertise in multi-billion-dollar M&A transactions and finance transformation, makes them exceptional additions to our global leadership team," Geary stated. He further noted that these leadership additions will substantially strengthen the organization’s capacity to scale internationally, accelerate commercial growth, and secure the deep expertise necessary to capitalize on emerging industry opportunities while driving long-term enterprise success.

Who is Parts Town Unlimited’s New CIO?

Stepping into the role of chief information officer is Pat Quint, an experienced technology executive who will oversee Parts Town Unlimited’s comprehensive digital efforts and long-term technology strategy. Quint assumes the mantle after serving most recently as the CIO at Duravant, a global industrial manufacturing solutions provider. Prior to his tenure at Duravant, Quint held a similar chief information officer position at Mastronardi Produce, where he honed his expertise in aligning IT infrastructure with commercial expansion and operational efficiency.

As Parts Town Unlimited’s new technology leader, Quint will be tasked with executing an ambitious technology strategy that places heavy emphasis on automation and artificial intelligence-powered tools. This technological push is already well underway at the distributor, highlighted by recent advancements such as Parts Town’s proprietary PartPredictor tool, which received a suite of new AI-backed features throughout the year. The company relies heavily on sophisticated digital platforms to serve its diverse customer base across the foodservice equipment sector, residential appliance market, and the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment industry.

Reflecting on his new position, Quint expressed enthusiasm for joining the distributor’s executive ranks. "It’s a privilege to work at Parts Town Unlimited given the impressive history, talented team, innovative solutions and focus on exceeding customer expectations," Quint said in the company’s announcement. "I look forward to helping the company achieve their goals by leveraging technology."

Parts Town Unlimited’s Chief Accounting Officer

In tandem with the technology leadership update, Parts Town Unlimited has appointed Kristi Belhumeur as its new chief accounting officer. Belhumeur, a certified public accountant, brings a quarter-century of dedicated leadership experience within the financial sector to her new role. Within the organization, she will direct the global accounting, tax, and treasury organizations, bringing rigorous financial governance to support the company’s broad operational footprint.

Before joining Parts Town Unlimited, Belhumeur served for nearly two years as the chief accounting officer at BradyPlus, a prominent distributor specializing in janitorial supplies, foodservice items, and industrial packaging. Her professional background is characterized by extensive experience navigating complex financial landscapes, particularly in the realm of large-scale corporate transactions and structural readiness.

The company noted that Belhumeur’s professional capabilities will be instrumental beyond day-to-day accounting functions. In addition to supporting upcoming mergers and acquisitions—a core component of modern distribution growth strategies—she will actively bolster audit procedures and enterprise readiness across the global business.

"Parts Town Unlimited has built an extraordinary business, and I look forward to applying my global finance leadership experience to help accelerate growth, support strategic expansion and deliver outstanding results for team members, customers and partners," Belhumeur remarked following her appointment.

The dual executive appointments arrive at a pivotal period for Parts Town Unlimited as the company continues to solidify its market position. Operating across multiple critical distribution pillars—ranging from commercial foodservice equipment and replacement parts to residential appliances and HVAC systems—the enterprise relies on a seamless blend of robust financial management and cutting-edge digital infrastructure. With Quint directing the digital and AI-driven initiatives and Belhumeur managing financial transformations and strategic mergers, Parts Town Unlimited has positioned its executive leadership team to navigate the evolving demands of modern B2B distribution and global commerce.
