Hello, I'm Forest Smith, and am Concord's Brand Ambassador. My journey in the swimming pool industry began back in the summer of 1974 when I started maintaining and vacuuming pools for a local swimming pool company. Over the years, I've gained diverse experience working in the service, construction, retail, and sales departments.

In 1981, I joined Concord Pools as the Retail Store Manager, and by 1989, I had risen to the position of Vice President, which I held until 2024. Currently, as the Brand Ambassador, my role focuses on protecting, promoting, and advancing the Concord brand. I take great pride in my contributions to Concord Pools and remain dedicated to upholding our company's reputation and success in the industry.
