Marc Blackman

Ever wonder what could cause someone to leave the wine business? Ask Marc. He was a manager at E&J Gallo Winery when he decided to join the automotive aftermarkets industry. The reason? An outstanding family business with solid Midwestern family values.

Marc’s responsibilities as CEO include everything from sales and marketing to manufacturing and distribution to IT and finance. Yes, we keep him busy. He doesn’t seem to mind, though. In fact, when he’s not at the office he’s usually active elsewhere. He’s volunteered and served as a committee chair for more community and industry organizations than we can realistically keep track of, and even founded a Global Automotive Network at the Young President’s Organization.
