ATLANTA -

Manheim has named two new general managers in its east and west regions that its division vice president Alan Lang says “exemplify Manheim’s commitment to a culture that encourages learning and development to drive better results for the business and clients.”

The company named John Duplanty to take over leadership of Manheim Portland and Tom Rastelli as general manager of Manheim Albany.

Responsibilities for both leaders will include driving future region growth, building client relationships and boosting operational efficiencies.

Duplanty started out with Manheim as an intern in 2004 while attending Arizona State University.

After graduation, he started with Manheim Tampa in the company’s management training program. He went on to increase his responsibilities with roles in Florida, New York and Arizona.

He was most recently general manager of Manheim Tucson, and the company said that going forward, Manheim Tucson will be a part of the Manheim Arizona Market Center, reporting to Manheim Phoenix general manager JD Daniels.

Since joining the company in 1999 as a condition report writer, Rastelli’s various leadership positions have been dealer services manager, assistant general manager, and most recently, general manager of Manheim Portland.

“Tom and John have each served in roles of increasing responsibility over the years, developing the skills needed to navigate successfully in our dynamic industry,” Lang said in a news release.
