04/05/2024
The MidAmerica Business Leaders Association recently underwent a transition in the chairperson position. Doug Harris, President and CEO of HE&M Saw, passed the gavel to Todd Fannin after serving as chair for three years. Under Doug’s leadership, MBLA successfully transitioned from the former Plant Managers Association.
Todd Fannin, now assuming the role of chair, expressed enthusiasm for the next three years, stating, “I look forward to helping in the continued growth and success of MBLA. We have a great opportunity with the leaders here in the park to shape and sharpen one another as well as continue in the leadership development of our companies and future industry that may come.”
Todd Fannin is a partner in three prominent companies located within the MidAmerica Industrial Park. Tack Designs, established in 2015, holds the distinction of being the state’s largest textile screen printer. In 2021, Todd became partner at Premier Signs and Design. He assisted in their relocation to the Park in spring 2022. Premier is responsible for many of the marquees, digital boards and signage in the community and around the park. In late 2023, Fannin became partner at HICO Heat Transfer Inc., assisting with their move to MidAmerica as well. HICO specializes in commercial and industrial coils, brazed plates, and tube bundles for HVAC systems.
