Distribution powerhouse Heritage Pool Supply Group has named a new president. Scott Frost, former Executive Vice President of Sales and Service with Big Three manufacturer Fluidra, has taken the position.
Frost served at Fluidra for more than 30 years, beginning with Jandy on its sales team before the company went through the multiple acquisitions that eventually led to Barcelona-based Fluidra. He also currently serves as chair-elect of The Pool & Hot Tub Alliance.
“Scott has been known throughout his career for building strategic relationships with customers and suppliers and, most importantly, for his servant leadership in helping his teams thrive,” said Dan Tinker, CEO of SRS Distribution, parent company to McKinney, Texas-based Heritage. “Scott is a trusted friend and mentor to many and a true steward of the industry.”
Frost will oversee sales strategy and operations, strategic initiatives, and continued expansion efforts for the company, which has been aggressively growing and acquiring since its founding in 2021. He succeeds Matt McDermott, who was promoted to the newly created position of President, Heritage Family of Companies at the beginning of the year, but is expected to continue supporting Heritage Pool Supply Group through more rapid growth.
McDermott said Frost’s strengths align with Heritage’s culture and plans for the future. “Scott’s deep industry relationships and decades of industry experience make him the ideal leader to guide Heritage into its next phase of growth,” he said. “His commitment to customer service and employee engagement as well as excellence and innovation aligns perfectly with our mission to empower pool professionals and elevate the industry.”
