John Yodzis

President & CEO at DEDC, Inc.

John joined DOW Technologies in 2008 after graduating with a master’s degree from the University of Florida. Beginning his career at DOW in outside sales, John has held various positions at the company in sales, marketing, purchasing, and business development management.

In 2013, with the hard work and support of his management team, John successfully led the transition of DOW from a single sales channel satellite television distributor to an industry leading distributor of custom integration, 12Volt, and satellite television products. The transition involved the acquisition of Shifting Sands Stereo Distributing to immediately bolster the CI pillar and a strategic, ground up effort to build out the 12Volt pillar.

Continuing DOW’s expansion and diversification, John and his team successfully completed four more strategic acquisitions. In 2015, DOW acquired Eagle Distributors, giving the company a firm distribution footprint in the western portion of its territory and providing a conduit to enter the growing Texas marketplace. In 2016, DOW acquired DB South to further cement its position in the 12Volt industry. DOW expanded into the Metro New York and Mid-Atlantic markets in 2019 with the acquisition of Bach Distribution. In December 2020, DOW acquired Audio Video Warehouse, expanding its distribution territory into the Southwest. DOW further strengthened their position in the Mid-Atlantic market with the acquisition of Tech Source Distributors in March 2022.
