DMA announced the appointment of David Sapp as its new assistant product manager.

During his tenure as an account manager at Auto Plus Auto Parts, Sapp significantly increased local accounts in the Chattanooga area, achieving a notable 15% year-over-year sales growth, DMA said in a news release.

His role as a broker account manager at Capital Waste Services saw him successfully elevate national brokerage accounts by 26% year-over-year and increase local sales in the Chattanooga/North Georgia markets by 18% year-over-year.

Sapp’s leadership as sales and marketing director at Ken Smith Auto Parts Inc. resulted in the development of the online sales program, increasing annual revenue from $600,000 in 2012 to $2.8 million in 2018, DMA noted.

      link hidden, please login to view announced its new line of warning lights, Grote WorkShield. The company said the new lamps are powered by HINVII technology and use minimally visible, low-wavelength light to illuminate high visibility material, significantly raising its conspicuousness without distracting personnel or disturbing traffic. Grote said its WorkShield lights are versatile enough for any application and can be strategically mounted on a wide variety of equipment like refuse trucks, utility trucks, tow trucks, and emergency response vehicles. This allows them
      to illuminate the high-visibility clothing and material on a worksite without directing visible light into traffic or other surroundings.
      link hidden, please login to view “Our team is excited to bring this innovative product to market,” said Matt Forner, Grote’s Director of Aftermarket Sales. “The HINVII technology built into our quality lamps brings a new layer of safety to work sites, further building on our commitment to make the world a safer place.”
      Grote said the WorkShield product line currently features two flat-mount options. The first uses six LED diodes producing low-wavelength HINVII light, while the second supplements the base model with four amber light diodes for added versatility. Both versions mount easily to nearly any solid, flat surface and are available through Grote distributors now.
