Norman also manages strategic and business planning as well as the pricing and business analytics groups, while coordinating with supply chain management and IT on operational matters.
“Conrad’s knowledge of our company, experience in the tire industry, and strong relationship with R&D in Japan and the U.S. have helped generate a steady stream of exciting new products for Toyo Tires. His promotion to vice president is a direct reflection of his contributions to our success,” said Roy Bromfield, president & CEO of Toyo Tire U.S.A.
