DEUTZ MAKES ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGES AS POWER CENTER FOOTPRINT AND SERVICES EXPAND

NORCROSS, GA (August 9, 2022) – DEUTZ Corporation has modified the organizational structure of its DEUTZ Power Centers nationwide as the company continues to expand its footprint and service offerings.

Effective immediately, DEUTZ Power Centers will transition to an East-West structure with the general managers from each region reporting to Dominick “Nick” Vermet, vice president of DEUTZ Power Center operations, until his retirement in December 2022. After Vermet’s departure, the two general managers will report to David Evans, DEUTZ president and CEO.

“The DEUTZ Power Center concept has been very successful since we launched our first location back in 2016,” said Vermet. “Over the past six years, we’ve grown to include nine locations nationwide, each of which offers an extensive range of value-added products and services. Now is the ideal time to restructure in anticipation of future growth so that we can continue exceeding customer expectations.”
