Puzio retires from NetPlus Alliance
NetPlus Alliance announced the retirement of Karl Puzio, vice president of supplier relations.
Puzio, who has been with NetPlus since its inception in 2002, served as the liaison with the company's supplier partners.
"I've known Karl Puzio for over 30 years, first as a senior buyer at Carborundum Abrasives in Niagara Falls, and later at American Brass in Buffalo, said Dan Judge, president and owner of NetPlus Alliance. "Karl was always a top notch purchasing professional, and did a lot of the heavy lifting when we were first starting the group. I have him to thank for the strong roster of 114 manufacturers and wholesalers we have today."
DeVilling & Associates LLC, of Sarasota, Fla., has been retained to conduct the search for qualified candidates to replace Puzio.
"NetPlus Alliance, with over 400 distributors and 114 suppliers and wholesalers, has grown to a point where we need additional leadership and structure. We look forward to having an experienced individual who can 'hit the ground running' and be a vital part of our executive team," said Jennifer Murphy, vice president of marketing and chief operating officer.
