Campbell will lead international sales in Canada for ASV’s school, commercial and transit bus brands. ASV is the parent company of Type A school bus manufacturer Collins Bus.

Campbell will report to John Walsh, vice president of sales for ASV Bus.

“I’m very pleased that Ron is joining ASV to lead bus sales in Canada,” said Kent Tyler, president of ASV Bus & Mobility Group. “Ron has more than two decades of bus sales experience, especially in the school bus market, and established relationships with key ASV bus dealers and customer accounts in Canada, making him an ideal fit for this market."

Campbell arrives from Creative Carriage, a bus and mobility conversion vehicle dealer and manufacturer of wheelchair accessible vehicles located in St. George, Ontario, where he was sales manager. Previously, he served as national sales manager in Canada and the eastern U.S. for Micro Bird Inc.
