The Automotive Distribution Network recently named new members to its National Jobber and Service Dealer Advisory Councils (NJAC and NSDAC), according to Mike Lambert, president of the Network.
Edward Harake, owner of Value Plus Auto Parts Wholesale in Garden City, Mich., joins Romeo Soto of San Antonio-based Poppe Automotive Warehouse as the latest additions to the NJAC. The NSDAC welcomes Kelly Anderson, owner of Grace, Idaho-based APLUS Automotive; Tucson-based Integrity Automotive’s Julee Baxley; Cincinnati-based Protech Autocare owner Bill Baxter; Ron Comfort Jr., owner of C & W Imports in Lancaster, Pa.; and Drellishak’s Service owner Frank Drellishak out of Rocky River, Ohio.
As part of their joint meetings held in different areas of the country, the councils also tour the nearby facilities of a local Network manufacturer partner and discuss the vendor’s products and services with key management.
Operating under the brands of Parts Plus, IAPA, Auto Pride and CMB, the Automotive Distribution Network is one of the largest, most diverse program groups in the industry.
