Titan Deepens Ag Aftermarket Commitment,
Names Kendra Mann Director of Aftermarket Sales
Promotion deepens ag aftermarket leadership as Titan International continues to invest in North American channel growth and dealer alignment.
Des Moines, Iowa — Titan International Inc. (Titan) has promoted Kendra Mann to Director of Aftermarket Sales, Titan/Goodyear Ag. Mann will join Paul Hawkins’ North American aftermarket leadership team, taking responsibility for strategy and execution across Titan and Goodyear agricultural tire products in the aftermarket channel.
“Kendra has earned this,” said Paul Hawkins, SVP of Aftermarket Sales. “She understands the business, she understands the customer, and she knows how to move the needle for our aftermarket business. This is the right person in the right role at the right time for Titan agriculture.”
Boots-on-the-ground background
Mann brings more than 20 years of tire industry experience to the position, including eight years at Titan. During her tenure, she has held roles including OEM Account Manager, Forestry Product Sales Manager, and Field Sales Manager for Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana—where she led her team in growth for the aftermarket segment. Prior to Titan, she spent 15 years with GCR Tires and Service, managing multiple commercial tire locations.
In her new role, Mann will collaborate with her field sales team, product management, and dealer partners across Titan and Goodyear agricultural lines to drive alignment and customer responsiveness across the channel.
Scott Sloan, Global Ag/LSW Product Manager, noted the significance of Mann's field background heading into the role. "Kendra has built valuable relationships in the field. She knows how dealers operate and what customers need on the ground. That perspective is going to make a real difference in how we execute across the ag aftermarket."
A commitment to customers
Titan’s customers can expect continued alignment between field support, sales and marketing initiatives and the dealer relationships that drive day-to-day service. Kim Boccardi, VP of Marketing, put it plainly: "Kendra is the kind of person who makes everyone around her better. She's put in the work, she knows the industry, and watching her step into this role is exactly what you hope to see. Titan is better with her joining our leadership team."
