Roberto Righi becomes deputy general manager at Prometeon Tyre Group

Prometeon Tyre Group has named Roberto Righi as deputy general manager. The appointment, which takes effect immediately, means Righi will report directly to the board of directors.

Until the end of 2019, he was executive vice president commercial replacement, Region EMEA and Business Moto at Pirelli. Company registration documents show that Righi has also previously been a director at both Pirelli UK Tyres Ltd and Prometeon Tyre Group UK Ltd in recent years.

“Over the coming years it will be crucial to follow the path already taken by Prometeon, based on business partnerships centrality, technological development and sustainability, considered both as respect for the environment and for all the communities and people with whom the company works daily,” Righi commented.
