Vantage Apparel welcomes Beth Belich to sales team

Vantage Apparel, a manufacturer and decorator of custom-branded apparel, has welcomed Beth Belich as sales account manager, where she will cover Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

Belich brings extensive industry experience to Vantage Apparel, with a background spanning both the distributor and supplier sides of the promotional products industry. She began her career with a large retailer before taking time away from the workforce to raise her children. She later returned to the industry part-time when her son’s baseball coach, a distributor, invited her to sell for his company. After six years in that role, Belich moved to the supplier side as an outside sales representative for alphabroder.

During her time at alphabroder, Belich managed three different territories and later served as a strategic director focused on the print-on-demand industry. Her broad experience, strategic mindset, and passion for helping clients succeed make her a strong addition to the Vantage sales team.

“Vantage has added so many capabilities in the last few years!” said Belich. “I am hoping to introduce Vantage to a wider audience and perhaps reintroduce Vantage to people who think we are just a seller of private-branded product, just a contract decorator, or just a webstore company. We can do all those things, and our customers can also mix and match the services they need.”

She added, “I love that businesses in our industry are like snowflakes — no two are exactly alike. There are so many different end-user groups to target and so many ways to do it. It is fun for me to understand the business my clients are in and help them with tools to make their work easier.”

“I am excited to welcome Beth Belich to the Vantage family,” said Sean Macilvain, vice president of business development. “Beth is a strategic sales leader who has dedicated herself to helping customers thrive, and I am eager to have that translate to the Vantage customer base in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Beth’s background and accolades speak for themselves, and we could not be more excited to have her representing the Vantage brand.”

Based in Mooresville, North Carolina, Belich enjoys boating on Lake Norman and spending time with her husband and two sons. A self-described history enthusiast, she loves visiting museums and reading every detail she can. Fun fact: She also has a dog named Rocky, named after A$AP Rocky, not the movie Rocky.
