Vice President of PMA, Bret brings so much to the PMA organization, with over 12 years of experience in the industry, Bret has had the opportunity to work in numerous positions ranging from warehouse inventory management while serving in the United States Air Force, to managing key accounts, to overseeing large operating fleets. Having worked side by side with Chad from 2022, conversation was still a regular thing. In conversation, Bret learned of PMA, and a with shared common vision, Bret quickly joined the team! In recent years, experiencing the evolution of the supply chain quickly turning into a transactional business, rather than relational, Bret is excited to build a “one stop shop” for all logistical needs all while putting the emphasis back on the relationship with all partners! Bret and Chad share the same goal, being to prove to each partner that needs matter regardless of the size of the shipment, time of the request, or size of the operation.
