Henry began his career in 2002 with the Maaco franchise system, where his leadership contributed to over $45 million in annual revenue for franchisees during his decade-long tenure. He later joined LINE-X, where he spent seven years out of his twelve with the company crafting the National Accounts Department from the ground up, achieving $18 million in bids and introducing a fleetfocused business model that reshaped the company’s operations.
“The National Accounts Department was just an idea—a seed. I nurtured it into a thriving entity that brought fleet solutions to the forefront,” Henry shared. “Joining Patriot Fleet Solutions is an incredible opportunity to continue pushing boundaries and driving innovation.”
In his new role, Henry will focus on expanding the division’s capabilities, fostering strategic partnerships, and delivering cutting-edge solutions to meet the evolving needs of fleet businesses.
“Henry’s vision aligns perfectly with our commitment to excellence,” added DeLaune. “We’re excited about the possibilities under his guidance.”
