The Manufacturing & Services (M&S) Division announced the 2025 Executive Committee chair on the opening night of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) Annual Convention.
Craig Lamarque has been unveiled as the new chairperson of the executive committee, following on from the outgoing Mark Krause. Superior Industries’ Kristen Randall was named vice chair of the executive committee.
Lamarque serves as vice president head of digital products at Wirtgen America, a John Deere Company. He joined Wirtgen America in January 2024 but has been with John Deere since 1999. His career in manufacturing has spanned 40 years.
The gavel exchange ceremony, held at the NSSGA M&S members’ dinner, was attended by the M&S board, executive committee members and past chairs. Lamarque will formally be voted into the NSSGA Leadership during the Annual Membership and Board of Directors Meeting on Tuesday, March 26.
“Our M&S members, and the technology, knowledge and equipment they provide, are critical to the success of the industry,” interim NSSGA president and chief executive officer Michele Stanley said.
“Craig’s experience and leadership skills make him an excellent choice to chair the M&S Division.”
