American Tire Distributors (ATD) announced two key leadership appointments. It named Todd Sanders as chief sales officer and Keith Calcagno as chief strategy officer for proprietary brands.
In this role, Sanders will lead ATD’s sales organization, customer service operations, and Tire Pros franchise development.
Sanders brings more than 25 years of leadership experience in the automotive aftermarket. Before this promotion, he served as ATD’s senior vice president of business development and strategy. Prior to joining ATD, he held senior leadership roles at Advance Auto Parts as senior vice president of professional sales and at CarQuest Auto Parts as vice president of professional markets.
In a newly created position, Calcagno will lead the development and execution of ATD’s long-term strategy for its private label brands.
An ATD executive for more than two decades, Calcagno has helped lead new business ventures and partnerships with tire and wheel brands, ATD said. His background includes leadership in corporate and supply chain finance and strategic planning at DaimlerChrysler (now Stellantis) and Kmart.
“These appointments reflect our commitment to building a high-performing leadership team that is focused on delivering value to our customers and partners,” said Ira Silver, ATD CEO. “Todd and Keith bring deep industry expertise, strategic vision and a passion for innovation that will help propel ATD into its next phase of growth.”
