Long Beach, CA – July 7, 2025 – JVC Mobile Entertainment is proud to announce the appointment of Special Market Specialists (SMS) as its new manufacturer's representative firm for the Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas markets. This strategic partnership reinforces JVC’s commitment to strengthening dealer relationships and expanding market presence in the region.

Mark Dombroski, Western Sales Manager for JVC Mobile Electronics, expressed confidence in the new alliance:
"SMS is the perfect fit for JVC. Their dedication to dealer relationships and outstanding follow-through aligns seamlessly with how we do business. We’re excited about the opportunities this partnership brings."

Based in the region they now represent, SMS brings decades of experience and a strong reputation for integrity and performance. Their core philosophy emphasizes long-term partnerships over short-term gains, with many of the brands they represent working with them for more than 15 years—a testament to the trust and consistent results they deliver.

The SMS team includes some of the most seasoned professionals in the 12-volt industry:

  • Dave Gill, who has been in the business since 1986
  • Gilliama “Yam” Domino, who began his career as an installer in 1984
  • Robert “Bob” Connacher, who entered the retail side of the industry in 1988

Each team member brings extensive experience across installation, sales, retail operations, and business development. Keeping everything on track is Whitney Tomlinson, SMS’s Director of Communications, who joined the team in 2021 and plays a vital role in client and brand communications.

With this partnership, JVC Mobile Entertainment looks forward to expanding its footprint in the region and delivering even greater value to its dealers and customers.
