Ohio-based Miami Valley Steel Service Inc. (MVSS) has named Nick Straka as its new president and CEO, effective July 1.
The steel service center said Straka joined MVSS in 2005 in sales, and currently serves as the COO. He will be replacing Lou Moran, who will be stepping down as president and CEO after 14 years. MVSS added that Moran, who has dedicated 33 years to the company, will become executive chairman of the MVSS board.
“At the core of our business lies a culture of excellence that extends to our employees and business partners. Throughout MVSS’s history, we have been fortunate to have exceptional leaders like Lou who have solidified this culture,” Straka said in a press release on Wednesday. “I am both humbled and excited to have the privilege of upholding these high standards for our teammates, customers, vendors, and community.”
