TUCSON, Ariz. (January 13, 2026) – Truly Nolen Pest Control recently announced the promotion of Matt Nelson to Area Manager for Western Commercial, which includes service offices in San Diego, Phoenix, and Tucson. He will remain based at the company’s Tucson Commercial service office at 3636 E. Speedway Boulevard.
Nelson joined Truly Nolen in January 2014 as the company’s Tucson Commercial Operations Manager, and during his 12 year pest control career, he has been a mentoring manager for a decade and has trained more than 60 of the company’s operations managers. Prior to joining Truly Nolen, he spent 20 years in retail management with Fry’s Grocery, Best Buy, and OfficeMax, and also coached USA Swimming and High School swim teams for almost a decade.
