Arrow Special Parts Announces New Pricing and MAP Policy for US Market

Arrow Special Parts, the manufacturer of Arrow exhaust systems, has released its pricing for the third and fourth quarters of 2014. Along with this pricing, Arrow Special Parts announced it will now have a MAP policy for the US market to enhance brand value to its dealer network.

David Christensen, National Sales Manager of SpeedMob, Inc., states “Arrow is one of a handful of premium global exhaust producers. We believe that our dealer network deserves every possibility to enjoy the benefits of selling a premium brand like Arrow and by instituting a MAP policy, Arrow is making a clear statement that their dealers matter to them.”

The new MAP policy will allow a minimum advertised price of 10 percent below MSRP. This policy is in effect immediately and US dealers will have until July 31, 2014 to ensure all advertised pricing is within this MAP structure. All MSRP prices will be derived from the new July 2014 price lists. These new price lists and digital catalogs are currently available from SpeedMob, Inc. SpeedMob staff is also available to assist eCommerce dealers in meeting the MAP enforcement deadline. A newly printed mid-year 2014 edition Arrow catalog will also be arriving in the coming weeks for dealers to utilize in their stores counter racks.

The boards of the Motorcycle Industry Council (MIC), Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF), Specialty Vehicle Institute of America (SVIA), and the Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association (ROHVA) voted unanimously to appoint Scott Schloegel as acting president and CEO of the associations. Diana Sanchez was appointed acting chief operating officer.

Schloegel and Sanchez, whose appointments are effective immediately, will also continue to serve in their current roles as senior vice president of government relations and vice president of operations respectively. The interim leadership was selected to ensure a seamless transition as the associations’ search committee continues to conduct a comprehensive review of the position of president and CEO, and a subsequent search to replace outgoing President and CEO Erik Pritchard.
