EGR USA Announces Personnel Changes

EGR USA has promoted Kevin McDougall to senior product development engineer and has hired Justin MacLauchlan to be its director of marketing.

MacLauchlan has 20 years’ experience in the automotive aftermarket and is an off-road enthusiast with a wealth of experience in building marketing strategies in the truck and race market, the company said. Prior to joining EGR USA, he served as the marketing manager for RalliTEK/PRE Racing, where he managed all marketing and advertising activities, and also as the brand manager for PIAA USA.

McDougall, an engineer and fabricator with 15 plus years of engineering experience in the automotive and aerospace industries, was hired in June 2022 as an engineer before assuming EGR USA’s lead product development role this month, the company said.

“Adding Justin to the team is part of EGR USA’s plan to expand the team with highly talented professionals to continue to build and grow the brand,” said Mike Timmons, vice president of Sales and Marketing. “We are fortunate to have someone with such an impressive track record of spearheading innovative marketing campaigns that results in significant sales growth.”
