This way we will continue to be able to set standards in the future - with regard to trends in the industry, product assortment as well as delivery capability and customer consulting. This includes clearly regulating responsibilities while taking current and future developments – such as increasing digitisation – into account. I am excited that Dr. Reiner Schmitz and Sebastian Kamphaus, two very dedicated and competent EUROPART managers, will be taking on general management responsibility in their respective business divisions. Rald Stepputatis is an experienced sourcing specialist and designated expert in the commercial vehicle parts industry. His many years of experience will give our company added momentum.
