ABC Technologies Announces Leadership Succession

Terry Campbell appointed as CEO.

ABC Technologies Holdings Inc., a manufacturer of custom, highly engineered technical plastics and lightweighting innovations to the global automotive industry, announced that its board of directors has appointed Terry Campbell as the company’s president and CEO, effective immediately. Campbell’s appointment follows the mutual agreement for Todd Sheppelman to step down as president and CEO and as a director of the company.

Campbell joined the company in 2022 as its chief operating officer. With more than two decades of automotive experience, he previously served as COO of The Woodbridge Group, a leading foam supplier to automotive and other industries, and has held business unit and operational leadership roles at Johnson Controls and Magna, among other leading industrial and manufacturing businesses. Campbell also will be appointed to the board of directors.

“On behalf of the board of directors, I want to thank Todd for his leadership and unwavering commitment to our business and its customers,” said James R. Voss, chairman of the board. “Todd’s contributions to the company have been immense. Todd has led the company since 2017 and, in the past two years, he successfully guided ABC through its initial public offering and the COVID-19 pandemic, and was instrumental in the company’s recent acquisitions of dlhBOWLES, Inc. and Karl Etzel GmbH.”

“The board of directors is extremely confident in Terry’s leadership. We look forward to continuing to work with him in his new role,” added Voss.
