      link hidden, please login to view, announced the promotion of Fred Snow to president and chief operating officer in the letter below: “As DMA strives to continue to grow and deliver excellence to our customers, building a strong and sustainable senior leadership team is imperative to our organization’s success. Today, I am pleased to announce Fred Snow will be assuming the title of President, along with his current role as Chief Operating Officer.
      Fred brought with him to
      link hidden, please login to view a very strong Automotive Aftermarket background and work experience in managing and running an organization similar to DMA. In his two years with our organization, Fred has comfortably assimilated into the DMA culture and exhibited thoughtful decision-making and leadership, while directly managing many of our key projects. He is now intimately knowledgeable about the workings of DMA, as he has been involved in most aspects of the business, extending beyond his direct responsibilities. I fully trust Fred’s ability to assess our business situations and make timely and deliberate decisions. He and I are fully aligned in the direction we steer the company and the effort it will take to achieve success. We both share a passion for serving the customer with a sense of urgency as our #1 priority. Fred’s areas of direct responsibility will remain the same as today: Supply Chain, Operations, Customer Service, Facility Management, and he will be assuming Product Management, and Engineering & Quality Management. This change of title acknowledges that Fred is assisting me in the overall day-to-day running of the company. It also represents that Fred is now my official backup for directing the company and making any required decisions in my absence. Fred also has full authority to sign on behalf of the company. 
      My role and responsibilities remain the same as CEO and Chairman of the Board. With the launching of our new joint venture factory SDI in Thailand and other corporate travel obligations, it was clear that the time had come when DMA needed someone officially in charge when I am unavailable. This evolutionary organizational step assures the stability and consistency that positions DMA to continue to be a fast-acting and customer-responsive company with clear lines of leadership and communication for our employees. 
      I am confident that this change is another positive milestone in the development of DMA. Please join me in congratulating Fred on this well-deserved appointment.”
