WASHINGTON (May 24, 2004) — Peggy Fisher, president of Fleet Tire Consulting and a commercial tire service columnist for Tire Business, has been elected secretary of the Tire Industry Association, effective in November at the next Specialty Equipment Market Association trade show in Las Vegas.
Thirty TIA board members chose Ms. Fisher over Gary Albright, Becker Tire & Treading Inc.; Mike Berra Jr., Community Tire Retreading; Bud Mullaney, Mullaney Tire Service Inc.; and Stu Zurcher, Transwheel Corp.
The election puts Ms. Fisher in line to be TIA president in four years. In early June, TIA will send out board election ballots to its 5,000 members; election results will be announced at the SEMA show.
