2011 Manufacturer Council
PTDA's Manufacturer Council acts as a conduit for manufacturer member
concerns and opinions to the association's Board of Directors. Ten
council members, nominated to represent a diverse range of product
categories, are elected annually at the PTDA Industry Summit by
manufacturer members of the association. The council chair and
vice chair sit as voting members on the Board.
