Leadership change reflects the company’s focus on expanding supply chain services offerings.

PLA, a portfolio company of Silver Oak Services Partners, LLC, has announced the appointment of Steve Clark as Chief Executive Officer. Steve joined the PLA leadership team in 2022 when Propak, the supply chain services company he founded in 1999, was acquired by PLA.

This leadership transition comes at a time of increased demand for the company’s integrated pallet and logistics service offerings.
