CAWA is pleased to announce that Ted Wise will be the keynote speaker at the annual dinner gala in Las Vegas during this year's Industry Week. The event will be held the Sunday night (October 29th) before the AAPEX and SEMA Shows. Mr. Wise began his career with O'Reilly as a delivery driver and later opened the Company's first retail and wholesale store. He was then promoted as the Company's first District Manager responsible for developing O'Reilly's dual market business strategy. Later on in his 45 year career, he became the Company's first Vice President in charge of Store Operations, then promoted to Executive Vice President of Operations and Sales, and subsequently promoted to Co-President over all functions of Store Operation, Sales, Advertising/Marketing, and Real Estate Expansion. To complete his career, he assumed the role of Co-President and COO at O'Reilly Auto Parts.
