Christi Pinkerton
Inside Sales/Order Entry
Christi Pinkerton relocated to Atlanta from South Georgia in 1986 to pursue a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration at Georgia State University. After graduating, she embarked on her foodservice career at Atlanta Fixture and Sales Company in Accounts Payable, eventually transitioning to the Engineering department as a project coordinator and assistant to the Vice President. After nearly a decade, she joined PMR as an inside sales associate, and in 1998, she began a 14-year tenure at Direct South. During this period, she held various roles, including project coordinator, purchasing and billing specialist, inventory control, redistribution sales, and ultimately Operations Manager. In 2012, she became part of the inside sales team at Premier Equipment Group for five years. In 2018, she joined The Hansen Group as an inside sales associate, focusing primarily on order processing. Her extensive experience in Atlanta, on both the dealer and representative sides of the business, has enabled her to forge lasting friendships that she deeply values. Christi is married to her husband of 34 years, Jeff, who also works in the foodservice industry as an equipment installer. They have three children: Jessica, 31, Rachel, 27, and Casey, 17, and recently welcomed their first grandchild, Brooklyn Adele. In her spare time, she enjoys shopping and spending time with her family, especially her new grandchild.
