Sonny’s, a manufacturer of conveyorized car wash equipment, parts and supplies, announced an organizational change to strengthen how it serves clients and to support the accelerated pace of growth.
- Kati Pierce has been promoted to President and will continue to report to Paul Fazio, CEO. As President, Kati will oversee the day-to-day operations of Sonny’s Holdings. Pierce most recently served as Sonny’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing; and has more than 25 years experience in the car wash industry as an owner, operator and distributor.
- Paul Fazio will remain in the position of Chief Executive Officer. As CEO, Paul will continue to focus on strategic initiatives, mergers and acquisitions, and the growth of Sonny’s Holdings.
“Internally, we all know Kati has been running Sonny’s day-to-day operations for the last year. This announcement gives Kati the title to match what she has been doing,” Paul Fazio said. “She has a clear view of what Sonny’s is and can be, and a persistent focus on the customer. During the past 7 years, under Kati’s sales and marketing leadership, we’ve made meaningful progress. She’s been an integral part of growing and strengthening our company and she’s brought greater focus and accountability to each of our solutions.”
Fazio also commented that this change creates the structure for Sonny’s today and long term.
“Each acquisition restates our commitment to providing solutions that help our customers run successful car wash businesses. By creating the President position with Kati in the role, we support our continuous effort to Make CarWashing Easy and we build on the existing strength of Sonny’s,” said Fazio.
