Previous Appearances on Power 50: 5

High ratings from his Power 50 peers spur a nine-spot rise for Kahan. The president of PromoShop oversaw a strong bounce-back for the Los Angeles-based Top 40 distributor in 2021, with the company also posting 30% growth in Q3 2022 and on track for an increase of 15%-20% in the final quarter of the year. The Mexico native (who immigrated to the U.S. as a teenager) has prioritized giving back by working with dozens of charities through his company’s #psCARES initiative. This year, for example, the distributor is supporting Fred Hutch’s Climb to Fight Cancer, where climbers from around the country summit the world’s highest peaks to raise money for research. Now boasting three decades of industry experience, Kahan has proven the ability to keep his distributorship fresh and vibrant.
