David Russas – Partner
Prior to co-founding Keypoint Sales and Marketing,  David was a Category Manager for Grocery and Flowers at CVS Pharmacy, considered one of the top 40 companies according to The Wall Street. His proven success in the retail industry spans over 20 years including twelve years at CVS Pharmacy and eight years with Benny’s Inc, the leading brand of Home and Auto products in Southern New England. 

David’s insight and intimate understanding of all key aspects of the retail environment -- from store management and inventory management to retail marketing and buying, demonstrate his vast knowledge and experience working with companies with revenues ranging from $1 million to $1 billion.

David’s business vision is 'Listen – Develop – Grow – Sustain.' As he states, “The most important strategies a brokering company can focus on to compete in today’s ever-changing business landscape is knowledge and reliability.”

David is also Founder of The Friends of Adam Fund. The fund was created to support the Tomorrow Fund Clinic at Hasbro Children’s Hospital, an organization generated to improve the lives of children afflicted with cancer. David lost his son in 1999 from cancer. The annual Mada Cup Memorial Golf Tournament generates revenue to support Adam’s Fund, which has grown significantly in terms of both individual and corporate participation. “We are pleased that Adam’s Fund has helped many families cope with the devastation this disease has brought to these young children.”
 
Originally from Greenville, Rhode Island, David graduated from the University of Rhode Island in 1990.

David resides in Smithfield, Rhode Island, with his wife and two sons. David is very active in raising funds for the Tomorrow Fund Clinic, when he’s not conducting some business on the “back nine.”
