Lee Negri Promoted as National/Universal's President

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. — Lee Negri has been tapped to lead National Distribution/ Universal Distributors as the adult wholesale company’s president.

Scott Taylor, CEO of the Taylor Made Enterprises group of companies that operates National Distribution/Universal Distributors, made the announcement today.

"Lee has done an amazing job over the years and its high time that he is recognized for his excellent leadership in making National/Universal what it is today,” Taylor said.

Negri said he was “excited and honored” to be promoted to the role of president.

“Having been welcomed into Scott Taylor’s organization eight years ago truly continues to be such an incredible experience with so many opportunities,” Negri said. “I look forward to building on the incredible foundation that Scott has put into place."

Negri’s promotion to president of National/Universal comes as he is celebrating his 30th year in the industry, joining National/Universal in 2010 to play a significant role in its transition from solely DVD distribution to a wider number of adult categories. Now, National/Universal carries 20,000 adult novelty products.

“I am very fortunate and thankful to have such an incredible team throughout our entire organization,” Negri said. “It’s not often that you get to work side-by-side with a group that shares similar goals and works so closely together.

“At National, it’s about family and relationships and we look forward to building on that. We have been very successful at giving our customers, whom I prefer to call our partners, a wonderful experience with the best possible service and selection found in the industry and I look forward to finding ways of making it even better.”
