Improved market focus

In Cibes Lift Group's continuous efforts to strengthen our market focus we have combined the resources of the departments Sales & Marketing and Business Development in a joint department.

This strengthens the possibilities for customer-driven development of our markets, products and customer relations.

Christer Lundberg, current Director Business Development, assumes the role as Vice President and Director of Sales & Marketing for the new merged department. Dan Dannberg choose in this context to leave the company.

"I have a strong commitment to our customer relationships and look forward to further developing the sales and marketing organization to work more closely with our customers for a mutual growth and profitability", says Christer Lundberg.

The new organization will apply from 1st December 2012.

"I have had the privilege of working with Dan also previously and after an interesting time in Cibes Lift Group, I wish him all the luck in the future", says Mats Engblom
