Meticulous might be a word Dale Moss’ friends use to describe him. From a marketing career to the grocery business to restoring leather in new and classic cars: here’s his story. Meet Dale Moss.
After a successful career in marketing at Scott Paper in Philadelphia I joined a family supermarket business in Western Pennsylvania: Moss Superstore and Moss Market. I operated these businesses for thirty years. Hilton Head has always been my choice for vacations. I retired here in 1994 . My first home was built on the marsh in Hilton Head Plantation. Then in 2003 I moved to Bluffton where I currently live. My hobby and interest in classic cars led to my involvement with the founding committee of the Hilton Head Concours and concourse judging. Along with my interest in classic cars came my establishing a detailing business –Ultimate Detailing–with a talent for restoring leather in new and classic cars.
