Bend-based Les Schwab announces next CEO

Bend-based tire retailer Les Schwab has named a new Chief Executive Officer.

Tom Nolan is new to the tire industry, but not retail. He’s the CEO of jewelry brand Kendra Scott, and held leadership roles with Ralph Lauren and Conde Nast earlier in his career.

Starting next month, Nolan will replace Mike Broberg, who worked for Les Schwab for nine years, including three as CEO. The company employs more than 8,000 people across 15 states.

Zac Ziegler joined KLCC in May 2025. He began his career in sports radio and television before moving to public media in 2011. He worked as a reporter, show producer and host at stations across Arizona before moving to Oregon. He received both his bachelors and masters degrees from Northern Arizona University.
