Cap America Inc., a supplier in the team headwear industry, welcomes Carter Newman as national sales manager for its sporting goods division. Newman will work and collaborate with National Sales Manager Tim Nixon to lead growth initiatives within the division.

“Carter joins us during a time of remarkable growth in our sporting goods division,” said Cap America CEO Mark Gammon. “His profound industry knowledge and extensive relationships are tremendous assets that will undoubtedly contribute to our ongoing success and solidify our position as a market leader in decorated team headwear.”

With a bachelor’s degree from Augusta State University and over a decade of experience in the sporting goods sector, Newman brings a wealth of team headwear expertise to the role.

His previous roles — most recently as director of headwear for the Pacific Headwear brand at Augusta Sportswear Brands — included managing large-scale headwear operations and maintaining key accounts and partnerships.

At Cap America, Newman will oversee the external sales team and work closely with internal sporting goods personnel to ensure seamless operations and customer service.

Newman comes to the role eager to make an impact, saying, “Cap America has long been known as the industry leader in service and speed. Their customer-focused approach and commitment to providing the best service in the industry are what sets them apart as a leader in the headwear space, and I’m extremely excited to have the opportunity to join such a dynamic and fast-growing organization.”

Cap America has confidence in Newman’s strategic vision and leadership in the sporting goods market and happily welcomes him to the team. The team expansion comes two months after the company recently made internal promotions.
