Dunlop moto appoints new US sales manager

Dunlop’s motorcycle tyre management team in the US has been expanded by the appointment of Cary Budzinski as its new general manager of sales. Budzinski begins his new role with more than 26 years at Goodyear’s retail store and consumer business units behind him; most recently he served as general manager of dealer development for Goodyear’s Consumer business unit. In his new position, Budzinski will report to Mike Buckley, Senior vice-president sales/marketing & R&D. Reporting to Cary will be Scott Dewey, Phil Waters, Fred Hassen and the rest of Dunlop’s sales force.

“The addition of Cary is an excellent opportunity to bolster an already-strong team, adding new depth to give us even more well-rounded capabilities,” commented Mike Buckley. “Cary is a proven leader who has a great deal of experience in the wholesale and retail realm, and we’re looking forward to the many abilities he adds to our team.”

“I’m very enthusiastic about being on board with the motorcycle tyre group, and I’m looking forward to engaging with the many professionals in the industry,” added Budzinski. “This is a very exciting sport with passionate fans in the customer base as well as in both the wholesale and retail sides of the business. This is a fantastic, dynamic setting.”
