Mark Walton

CEO & Co-Founder at Gorilla Safety

Mark began his career in the concrete and building material distribution business. During that time, he spent time in maintenance, dispatch, sales and operations. After that he started an insurance agency with a focus on transportation and fleet accounts. While helping clients identify best options available, he worked with clients to identify transferable and non-transferable risks within the business. This focus was the transition to building a system to help fleets manage key aspects of the business. The best practices approach employed have helped his clients in many ways from cost savings to efficiencies and reduced overall business risk.

In the development of these programs and systems, it became clear that the industry needed a more robust solution to satisfy their operational requirements. Gorilla Safety was designed to address these needs helping industry participants improve their risk profile, efficiencies and profit. As co-founder of Gorilla Safety, Mark sees great opportunities for fleets in the dynamic technology now being offered to fleets of all sizes.
