Marvin Bozarth
The senior technical consultant for the Tire Industry Association (TIA) will retire following the upcoming Off-the-Road Tire Conference to be held in Florida, Feb. 21-24.
Marvin Bozarth has been with TIA since 1990 and has served as the executive director of the American Retreaders Association (ARA) and International Tire and Rubber Association (ITRA) from 1991-2002. Marvin took on the role as senior technical consultant in 2002 and has been the primary resource for all TIA members involved in the retreading and repairing industries.
“We are grateful for the decades of service that Marvin has provided the membership and wish him well as he begins the next chapter of his life,” said Roy Littlefield, TIA executive vice president. “Marvin and I have worked together since he started with the Association and his knowledge of the industry has played a crucial role in all of our government affairs efforts. He is an industry icon who will be missed by everyone in the tire business.”
During this year’s OTR Conference, Marvin will speak on the future of the retreading and repairing industries at the general sessions and on Thursday, February 22, he will give his final presentation as a member of the TIA staff. It will mark almost three decades with the association and serve as his farewell to the industry.
The 63rd Annual OTR Conference will be held at the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida from February 21-24, 2018.
