Viking Names New President

Viking Spas, a hot tub manufactured based in the city of Wyoming, Mich., has named a new president after the retirement of John Clark in June.

Taking the helm is A.J. Gallagher, the firm’s previous COO, who brings more than 25 years of spa-industry experience.

“I’m honored to lead Viking Spas into this next chapter,” Gallagher said. “This company means a lot to me — it’s part of my family.”

Clark worked at Viking since 2006, when he joined as CFO. The company credits him with guiding it to achieve two decades of steady growth. “I’m incredibly proud of the team we’ve built and all we’ve accomplished together,” he said. “I’m confident that Viking is in the best possible hands moving forward.”
