Starco announces senior OEM appointment
As of November 2011, former GKN Wheels Carpenedolo sales director Thomas Ruedl will take on the role of group sales director, OEM Key Accounts at Starco. In his new role, Ruedl will report to regional director Jef de Smedt and have overall responsibility for Starco’s existing and future OEM customers. First priority for Ruedl in his new position will be prioritising Starco’s agricultural, industrial and trailers/caravans markets; this will be followed by the horticultural and internal transport markets. The new OEM Key accounts group sales director will work in close liaison with local Starco sales entities, which will also continue their daily contact with global OEM customers as before.
In announcing Ruedl’s appointment, Starco commented it recognises that key OEM market segments are dominated by global companies, and that products and end-users require a global logistics and service strategy from their suppliers. “Starco will therefore strengthen focus on the development of alliances with global OEM customers, providing global design and engineering solutions backed up by a global manufacturing and logistics infrastructure,” the company said in a written statement.
Thomas Ruedl will make his public debut for the Starco Group at November’s Agritechnica 2011 show in Hannover, Germany.
