Roush hires Veenhoven to lead transit sales

Nov. 29, 2012

Randy Veenhoven has been named executive director of transit fleet sales for Roush CleanTech. Veenhoven will focus on sustainability solutions for the public transit industry for the propane autogas vehicle-technology provider.

“Randy is a seasoned professional in the public transit industry, possessing a wealth of knowledge, experience and real-world connections,” said Todd Mouw, vice president of sales and marketing for Roush CleanTech.

“The public transit industry is challenged to service a wide variety of local and urban transportation needs — not an easy task in today’s economic environment,” he continued. “Propane autogas is an ideal alternative fuel choice, as it substantially reduces operating, maintenance costs and emissions.”

Veenhoven has 25 years of mass-transit industry experience working with various State transportation agencies, original equipment manufacturers, and transit agencies. He most recently served as regional sales manager for USSC Group.

“I am happy to join Roush CleanTech and can’t wait to use my skills and strong network of contacts in the transit industry to promote this American-made, economical energy source,” said Veenhoven.

“Plus," he added, "with the Roush CleanTech Ford E-450’s recent Altoona testing, transit agencies can apply for Federal Transit Administration funding to assist with conversion costs. That savings can then be used for operational expenses, providing a great solution for clean air and fuel economy.”
