As part of implementing its core strategies, Rieter will have greater focus on innovative strength and profitability as well as development of after-sales business over the next three years. In order to accelerate development of after-sales business, functions that have been settled in the Spun Yarn Systems business group until now will be combined into an additional business group as of January 1, 2015.
The Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Carsten Liske to the Executive Committee as head of the business group After Sales from January 1. The 41-year-old plant and production engineer ETH has been working for Rieter since 2009 and has contributed important further developments for the global supply chain and the business in China.
With the new organization coming into effect on January 1, Rieter will also be adjusting the segment reporting.
