QubicaAMF Worldwide has recruited Jack Siefert as its new FEC amusement sales executive, as part of a plan to extend its involvement in the FEC market.
His primary role will be to grow the FEC segment, supporting the amusement division by selling the company’s full bowling product mix into the market and managing the relationships with amusement distributors in the US.
The firm is widening its bowling offering into new operations including FECs, Resorts, Water Parks, Trampoline Parks and Go Kart Facilities.

He will work with business development manager, Tony Tallarico, supporting QubicaAMF’s growth and serving as a representative for all operators looking to expand their business and add bowling as an attraction.
“Bringing in an industry veteran like Jack, who has experience with both bowling and operational management of Fun Centers, provides an immense resource to our team,” said Tallarico.
