Peter Miller, executive vice president of business development and sales at Pro-Tech Industries, recently was installed as the 56th board chair of NTEA—The Association for the Work Truck Industry.
Miller accepted the position from immediate past board chair Craig Bonham, vice president for commercial vehicles at Safe Fleet, during NTEA’s Annual Meeting, held in conjunction with The Work Truck Show 2020.
“I’m honored to accept the NTEA board chair position and am excited to be part of the association’s powerful movement committed to furthering industry knowledge, growth and profitability,” Miller said. “Together, we will advance relevant tools for the commercial vehicle community, advocate for mutually beneficial policies and keep moving the industry forward.”
Miller joined Pro-Tech more than 30 years ago. He served in various roles, including branch manager, vice president and president, before settling into his current position in 2016. He has a track record of industry experience, and serves as the main point of contact supporting customer groups in the transportation and work truck industries.
In 2014, he was elected to serve on NTEA’s board and, for the last six years, has become heavily involved in committee work. In addition to his many contributions, he chaired the temporary Truck Equipment 101 Task Force in 2015 and the Finance & Investment Committee in 2017. He served as convention chair for the Education Committee in 2019.
