Nick Phillippi, a respected tire industry leader, has joined Alliance Tire Americas (ATA) as Director of Strategic Initiatives. ATA President Jim Clark says bringing Phillippi on board is a key element of Alliance’s continuing commitment to customer service.
“Nick is bringing deep insight into the dealer and end user experience,” Clark says. “He grew up on a farm. He’s owned a construction company. He started in the tire business as a service technician and worked his way to the top of a nationally respected dealership. As a long-time Alliance dealer, he knows us, he knows the industry and he knows what dealers and distributors need. Having Nick on our team will be invaluable in helping us build programs and processes that further enhance the dealer experience with Alliance.”
Phillippi, former general manager of Kansasland/Nebraskaland Tire, will play a pivotal role in streamlining processes and building dealer programs to promote the Alliance, Galaxy, and Primex brands.
Phillippi will work closely with the company’s sales, marketing, customer service, and field engineering teams across North America and ATA is thrilled to welcome him aboard.
