Director, Supply Chain Management
National Pronto Association
Michael Mitchell is the Director of Supply Chain Management for the National Pronto Association, which is a member-owned Program Distribution Group with members coast to coast. Prior to joining Pronto, Mitchell had been Executive Director of the RPM Group since 1993. The RPM Group served primarily independent aftermarket chains in the Northeast and Pacific Northwest. Over the years RPM had effectively helped its members succeed as both retailers and wholesalers.
On March 26, 2005, the RPM Group joined forces with the National Pronto Association thanks to the work of the leading members of both Groups; Bill Maggs, Pronto’s President, and Mitchell played an instrumental role in bringing the two Groups together. Mitchell attended the Georgia Institute of Technology, has been active in the aftermarket for more than 35 years and has focused on the distribution side of the business, including both the retail and wholesale channels. In addition he worked in the export, OE, and undercar channels.
