At HD Aftermarket Dialogue 2026, Greco will outline FleetPride’s strategic direction under his leadership and share lessons from his cross-industry experience. His keynote will highlight how the distributor’s priorities align with supplier needs and what the future holds for collaboration across the aftermarket channel, organizers say.
“Dialogue is where decision-makers come to connect the dots,” says Paul McCarthy, president of MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers. “Adding Tom Greco to this year’s agenda brings a powerful new perspective — one that will challenge conventional thinking and inspire dialogue across our industry.”
“FleetPride is a cornerstone of the heavy duty aftermarket, and having Tom Greco share his vision is invaluable,” adds John Blodgett, vice president of sales and marketing at MacKay & Company. “Dialogue is about fostering candid conversations between all the key players in the heavy duty aftermarket sector. This keynote provides a unique opportunity to hear where the industry’s largest distributor is heading and what it means for the rest of us.”
