Basin Industries, a growing U.S. manufacturer of custom material handling and industrial packaging solutions, today announced the appointment of James Fox as Executive Vice President of Corporate Development. Fox will lead the company’s mergers and acquisitions strategy, with a focus on expanding Basin Industries’ national footprint and partnering with established businesses that complement its growing platform.

Fox brings over two decades of leadership experience spanning the automotive, technology and investment sectors, with a track record of scaling organizations and executing growth strategies—and a track record on the professional racecar circuit.

Most recently, Fox served as Senior Vice President and North America GM for an electric vehicle charging and software company. He also served as Vice President of Sales and Operations at VinFast, where he helped scale the electric vehicle manufacturer’s North American operations and prepare the organization for its public-market debut.

“We are thrilled to welcome a leader of James’ caliber to our executive team,” said Mark Suvak, President of Basin Industries. “His experience scaling operations and turning ambitious growth strategies into action makes him an ideal fit to lead our next phase of growth. We see tremendous opportunity to expand Basin Industries by partnering with strong businesses and the people who have built them.”

“I’m excited to join an organization that wants to grow by welcoming great businesses and talented teams into the Basin Industries family,” said Fox. “For owners who have spent years building successful companies, a transaction is about more than financial terms. It’s also about protecting what they’ve built—their people, customer relationships, reputation and legacy. Our goal is to be a thoughtful long-term partner that respects those foundations while providing the resources and support to help each business continue growing.”

Basin Industries is actively seeking acquisition opportunities with industrial packaging, material handling and related manufacturing businesses across the United States. Business owners considering a sale, succession plan or strategic partnership are encouraged to contact Fox directly for a confidential conversation.
