Saginaw, MI — Powertrain product supplier, Means Industries Inc., recently announced the appointment of Jeremy Holt as its new president.
Most recently, Holt was with TREMEC SA de CV, where he was global vice president for business development, marketing, sales, application engineering and strategy, as well as the head of TREMEC’s U.S. business since 2012.
Prior to TREMEC, Holt was CEO of Nxtgen Emission Controls and served in senior leadership positions at both Ricardo PLC and the Piston Products Group of T&N plc (acquired by Federal Mogul).
“I am excited to join the Means team that has great depth in product, process, transmission and systems knowledge,” Holt said. “The core technologies are highly relevant to today’s high-efficiency transmissions and will have an evolving role in tomorrow’s electrified transmission requirements. I look forward to working with the team to support our customers internationally with our full range of capabilities.”
Holt succeeds Bill Shaw, who during his successful 24-year tenure as president of Means Industries Inc., built the company into a leading Tier 1 supplier of clutch systems and advanced powertrain components. During Shaw’s tenure, Means Industries Inc., acquired TransForm Automotive, an industry-leading manufacturer of precision powertrain components and assemblies.
