30 August 2022 - 11:30PM
Worksport Ltd.
(Nasdaq:
WKSP) (the “Company” or “Worksport”) has appointed as
manager veteran manufacturing executive Michael Scolnick. Scolnick
has had over 25 years of progressive experience building and
leading high-performance teams, developing and implementing
world-class manufacturing concepts, and driving business
performance. Scolnick will manage the Company’s new 220,000 sq. ft.
assembly plant, located in West Seneca, NY.
“The Company will ramp up production of our new
advanced products, including all-new hardcover designs and SOLIS,
our advanced truck bed tonneau cover with integrated solar panels.
We hired Michael, directing him to begin production as soon as
possible. This is a turning point in Worksport’s history and one of
the most significant hires we have announced,” said Worksport CEO
Steven Rossi. “Scolnick’s experience is unequaled, and we are
thrilled to have him join our growing team. His experience will
bring great value to the Company and its shareholders and
demonstrates our strategy to find the best people to achieve
Worksport’s ambitious plans for global industry leadership.”
Worksport’s flagship proprietary patented
products include its legacy light truck covers, SOLIS, a folding
truck bed tonneau cover with integrated solar panels, and COR, a
portable energy storage system with modular batteries and advanced
hot-swap technology. Together, SOLIS and COR will transform pickup
trucks, allowing them to become mobile solar power generation
systems capable of forming portable nanogrids, producing and
storing power anywhere, anytime.
“Scolnick’s background includes lean
manufacturing training and ERP business systems that increase
efficiency by managing and improving the use of company resources
as well as managing day-to-day business activities like
procurement, project and risk management and compliance, and supply
chain operations,” Rossi said. He holds an MBA and B.S. in
Industrial Engineering from the University of Buffalo. He continues
to live in the community, where he contributes to Habitat for
Humanity, among other local projects.
“The new position takes advantage of my
experience, and I am thrilled to join Worksport and eager to get to
work helping to create the systems and critical paths that will
help Worksport be the leanest, most efficient manufacturer of its
groundbreaking SOLIS and COR products,” Scolnick said. “We will be
building products not only for the multi-billion-dollar market of
light truck owners but also creating custom systems for some of the
world’s leading automotive manufacturers—and there is no doubt we
will be up to the task.”
