ArvinMeritor marketing director honored at Aftermarket Week

ORLANDO, Fla. — Organizers of Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week took time out of the busy event to honor one of the trucking supply industry’s most respected people.

Mike Pennington, senior marketing director, Global Marketing Communications, for ArvinMeritor, was honored by HDAW for all his volunteer work with the show. Jerry Weiss, who presented the award, explained, "I believe there are three levels of participation in an event like HDAW – the benchwarmers, the players and the MVPs. Mike Pennington is one of those MVP volunteers that are crucial to the success of HDAW and its rise as an industry event. Mike has been, is today, and always will be one of my heroes."

Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week wrapped up Thursday in Orlando, Fla., with an awards luncheon honoring the industry’s top heavy duty distributors, an outstanding technician and the best new aftermarket products.
