Fun Spot Manufacturing Names Brent Beringhaus to Power Next Phase of Growth

Experienced global leader aims to enhance customer experience and go-to-market strategy

Hartwell, Georgia, USA–March 26, 2026

Fun Spot Manufacturing, a leading provider of equipment for Family Entertainment Centers and recreational venues, is excited to announce Brent Beringhaus as its new Managing director, effective February 2026. Beringhaus will continue the work of Bill Wild, who has served as Fun Spot Managing Director since 2018. 

Beringhaus steps into the role at a pivotal time for the company and will lead overall business growth, team development, and execution across sales and operations. He has relocated with his family to Hartwell, GA – home of Fun Spot’s corporate offices – where he will also help shape the next generation of Fun Spot’s innovative product offerings.

With a strong track record of scaling brands and driving performance, Beringhaus brings a global perspective and hands-on leadership style. He most recently served as Managing Director, Americas for AquaLung Group in Miami, FL, and previously held leadership roles with Dakine, Adventure Sports, Inc., and NP Surf in Australia.

Over the course of his career, Beringhaus has grown established companies and built businesses from the ground up—including leading one company from startup to mid-seven-figure sales—and has successfully launched e-commerce initiatives that expanded reach and accelerated growth.

“Brent’s track record of building brands, optimizing operations, and leading high-performing teams makes him the ideal leader for Fun Spot Manufacturing at this stage of our growth,” said Olivier Estéves, CEO of ABEO Group, Fun Spot’s parent company. “He brings the energy and experience needed to continue the work of strengthening our product strategy, expanding our reach, and delivering for our customers.”

“I’m thrilled to join Fun Spot Manufacturing and be part of what’s ahead,” said Beringhaus. “There’s a great foundation here—strong products, a talented team, and real momentum. I’m looking forward to building on that, sharpening our go-to-market strategy, and serving the needs of our customers in exciting new ways.”
