Spectra Premium has announced the retirement of Kerry Best Sr., effective August 31.

Best has been a pioneer in the Aftermarket Heat Transfer industry for more than 45 years, first as owner of Coulter Radiator and, since 1998, as a leading executive of the Aftermarket division at Spectra Premium.

“I would like to thank Kerry for his great contribution to the growth and success of our company for the last 20 years. Kerry was a true leader who was well respected by all throughout the industry.

He has set a strong foundation in our Aftermarket division and leaves the company with a great management team in place to continue to reach higher goals. On behalf of all of us at Spectra Premium, I wish Kerry a well-deserved and happy retirement,” said Jacques Mombleau, CEO of Spectra Premium.
