Jan. 12, 2016
JCB North America appointed Tim Witter vice president of manufacturing.

JCB North America appointed Tim Witter vice president of manufacturing. Witter will be responsible for JCB’s North American Manufacturing Center, which builds the company’s skid-steer loaders, compact track loaders, the 3CX backhoe loader and the high-mobility engineer excavator.

Witter now oversees all of the Savannah, Ga.-based manufacturing departments including engineering, production, manufacturing, purchasing and logistics. He also oversees production control, manufacturing engineering, quality, new product introductions and provides direction for global production of JCB skid-steer and compact track loaders.

Witter joins JCB with extensive manufacturing experience including more than 18 years at Gorbel Inc., a handling solutions manufacturer where he was vice president of operations. He also worked as engineering manufacturer for Champion Products and director of operations at The Melton Shirt Co.

“Tim brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this critical manufacturing position, and we look forward to the contributions his expertise will bring to JCB as we continue to manufacture innovative, industry-leading construction and agricultural equipment.”

Witter is replacing Stuart Hughes, who returned to JCB’s global headquarters in Rocester, U.K., to take on a similar role.
