Bandit Names Craig Davis CEO/President
Craig Davis is the new CEO and President of Bandit Industries, as announced by former CEO Jerry Morey. Davis joined Bandit in 2018 as sales director and has also been a part of the Bandit management board, overseeing marketing and parts management.
Prior to joining Bandit, Davis worked at Power Solutions International and held various roles ranging from parts and sales to executive VP of sales. While working at PSI, Davis supplied Bandit engines for more than years, and was able to form a variety of relationships with Bandit employees, customers and dealers.
“Craig has demonstrated to me and the board that he is more than capable of managing and growing the company,” Morey comments. “Craig has been a big part of our growth since joining Bandit. He is a tireless worker with good management and business skills, and has demonstrated those qualities in managing the sales, marketing, and parts departments.”
Davis states: “There are going to be changes in 2024, but one thing that is not going to happen is change just for the sake of change. It will be well thought out and done with the sole purpose of making the company better today, tomorrow, and for years to come.”
Davis is married with three children and is a 1995 graduate of the University of Illinois with a major in economics and a minor in marketing.

For example, for the first time ever across 20-plus years of logger surveys, the number of loggers who rate their company’s financial health “poor” (9%) to “very poor” (21%) outnumber those who say “good” (21%) to “very good” (7%)—30% to 28% overall in favor of the negatives.
