Fernando R. Garcia, who was president of Ellison Technologies since 2009, was named general manager Wednesday and will head up all of Methods’ operations in California, Oregon, and Washington.
Garcia will be based in the Northern California region, where the company soon plans to open a technology center.

Garcia will also be expanding Methods’ sales, service, and applications presence throughout the entire west coast region.
