  • Bob Hughes Vice President, Supplier Relations & Expositions
    March 30, 2018 Dear Members of the Nominating Committee: I am looking forward to our Nominating Committee during the NACS State of the Industry Summit and working with you to populate the board with qualified and diversified candidates. In the April meeting, we will select new, eager suppliers for the NACS Supplier Board. Along with deciding who the new members will be, we will have some challenges as you decide who moves up, who doesn’t and who, unfortunately, will rotate off. Decision One We promote Dave Riser to the chair. I would hope that is obvious, but we still need to vote him up. Decision Two Vice chairs in their 2nd (last term) are Tim Quinn and Drew Mize. Tim recently announced his retirement from Mars Wrigley (May 2018). With this information, we should consider promoting Drew to chair-elect. The other Vice Chair is Rick Brindle, who will be finishing just his first term and can remain Vice Chair for another year. Decision Three We currently have 21 of our allowed 25 supplier seats open (due to retirements or role changes). We like to have 1 or 2 seats open to give the supplier board flexibility to adjust and add a major CPG company or manpower if we are struggling on an initiative. We should also have two available Vice Chair seats, unless we promoted Rick which would give us three openings. The 2015 class that will term off in October 2018 are Brent Cotten and Frank Squilla. Both are very strong contributors that will hopefully find their way up to Vice Chair.

Akos Sefcisk, gen- eral manager of Twin Falls operations, said his plant will hire as many as 30 addition- al workers, bringing its total payroll in Twin Falls to more than 180 employees. The plant employed about 200 before the national recession forced the company to lay off more than 40 people in October 2008. Jayco also consolidated its operations by moving production from the building at 621 Washington St. S., to the building in its 176-acre industrial park on Hankins Road.
