Arrow Truck Sales Inc., Kansas City, Mo., celebrating its 55th anniversary in 2005, has announced the creation of a new business development position and two branch manager promotions.
Carl Heikel, president and CEO of Arrow, reported that near record sales in 2004 and rapidly accelerating demand necessitated the moves.

Arrow named Larry McDaniel, formerly the assistant manager in Houston and Whittier, to replace Brancato as branch manager in Whittier. The company also announced Randy Kricke’s promotion to branch manager of the Atlanta sales office. Krick was formerly assistant manager in Tampa, Fla.
