Newly elected vice president, Eric Grabowski, Edge Construction Supply, Spokane, Wash., will serve as 2014 president of the Specialty Tools & Fasteners Distributors Association (STAFDA). Recently elected president, Rod Gowett, Bay Tool & Supply, Milpitas, Calif., needs to step back to STAFDA vice president for one year to focus on a critical family medical issue.
However, he will serve as STAFDA president in 2015. The STAFDA Board of Directors unanimously agreed to this change. Grabowski’s duties will begin at the General Session, November 12, during the Association’s Annual Convention & Trade Show in Las Vegas, November 11-13.
