Plexus Appoints Oliver Mihm as Leader for EMEA
NEENAH, WI, July 15, 2015 - Plexus Corp. (NASDAQ: PLXS), a leading electronics
engineering, manufacturing and aftermarket service provider for customers in the
mid-to-low volume, higher complexity market sectors, today announced the
appointment of Oliver Mihm, 43, as the new Regional President for the EMEA
region. With this appointment, Mr. Mihm assumes leadership responsibilities for
the strategy and execution of all aspects of Plexus' business within EMEA. Mr.
Mihm will be based out of the Plexus' Darmstadt Design Center in Germany.
"I am excited about this opportunity as Plexus is in an excellent position for
growth in the coming years in EMEA," commented Mr. Mihm. "With the
establishment of our German subsidiary in 2011, the expansion of our UK
facilities in 2012 and the opening of our new manufacturing site in Romania in
2013, we have laid crucial foundations for becoming a major player in Europe.
This enables our customers to work with us on a local level while taking
advantage of the global network and expertise of Plexus as a whole. My focus
will be on increasing brand awareness, especially in the DACH region as Plexus
continues our momentum gaining recognition in the marketplace."
Todd Kelsey, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, commented,
"EMEA and specifically Germany, remains a significant growth opportunity for
Plexus necessitating strong leadership. Throughout his 15-year tenure with
Plexus, Oliver has established a solid record of success. His experience and
proactive leadership style will provide immense benefit to the EMEA team as they
further develop strategies to expand Plexus' market share in this important
region."
