Max started at Deere while in college getting his BSME from University of Missouri-Rolla. It didn’t take long for Deere to recognise Max’s leadership qualities. I personally have known Max for over 30 years. Max’s knowledge of markets in North America, South America and Europe will help Titan develop wheels and tires specific for customers in those areas. I know Titan’s president and CEO, Paul Reitz and his staff are pleased to have Max on Titan’s Team to facilitate continued growth in the OTR wheel and tyre markets.”
