KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Arrow Truck Sales says it will be concentrating efforts into building more Volvo-Mack Premium Used Truck Dealers' wholesale and retail business in preparation for the eventual economic upturn.

This, says the company, will help prepare North American Trucks' (the joint corporate company for Volvo-Mack) used truck businesses to handle the expected demand in upcoming months.

As part of this initiative, Marty Crawford has been promoted from Mack Remarketer to senior account manager for Dealer Sales Development.

His new role will involve greater responsibility, management involvement, and sales development. Crawford is currently President (and a former Board of Directors member) of the Used Truck Association (UTA).

"Momentum is building as our clients gain confidence in the strength of the economic recovery," said Pete Monize, VP of Purchasing & Wholesale for Arrow Truck Sales. "We are prepared to lead the industry and serve the needs of the used truck buyer when the demand grows," continued Pete. "Marty brings a wealth of experience to dealers."

His focus on the Volvo-Mack Premium Used Truck wholesale business is effective immediately.
