The 17-in-17 Program Recognizes Mindy Sevinor from Salem Plumbing Supply

The DPHA 17-on-17 Program recognizes up-and-coming influencers in the decorative plumbing and hardware business. This program will profile 17 DPHA members with 10 or less years of experience. Each month from June through October 2017, members will be inducted into the 17-in-17 club, and their stories will be featured in DPHA's weekly newsletter, Connections.  This week we recognize Mindy Sevinor of Salem Plumbing Supply/Designer Bath in Salem, MA.


Mindy is living proof that nice people finish first. You may not meet a nicer or more humble professional in the decorative plumbing and hardware industry. Don't let Mindy's naturally friendly nature and glass half-full perspective take away from the fact though that she is a savvy, seasoned professional who is at the top of the DPH game. That is why DPHA is recognizing Mindy as a member of the 17-in-17 program.

In every way, it seems Mindy and her showroom, Designer Bath in Beverly, MA, have excelled. Mindy works alongside her brother Jason and dad Ralph Sevinor. The showroom has been honored with numerous Best-in-Boston and other awards, reflecting Mindy's understanding of market needs and her ability to create compelling customer experiences. She uses a combination of vignettes, faucet walls and live displays to showcase lines. There are 18 working faucets, multiple showerheads and a functional steam unit that offer Designer Bath customers multi-sensory experiences.

Mindy gives back to the industry through numerous channels. She is one of the rising young leaders in our industry and willingly shares her experience and expertise with peers. Mindy and Kymberly Weiner (Best Plumbing Tile & Stone) led a workshop on how to use tablets in showrooms at the 2014 DPHA Annual Conference and Mindy served as a panelist for a workshop presented at the 2013 Annual Conference.

Mindy is a loyal attendee of DPHA conferences and regional meetings and other industry events. She generously volunteers her time to help others. She was honored by Supply House Times 20 Young Execs in 2013 and was honored by the Forte Buying Group with a distinguished service award in 2014. And currently, Mindy serves on Forte's Board of Directors.  Mindy also gives back to those who are less fortunate - she has worked at an orphanaqe in Equador, helped build schools in Guatemala and helped build houses in Bolivia.

For all of these reasons and many more, our congratulations and thanks go out to Mindy!
