MacGregor establishes its Head office in Singapore
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
CARGOTEC CORPORATION, PRESS RELEASE, 29 SEPTEMBER 2017 AT 9:00 AM EEST
MacGregor, part of Cargotec, establishes its Head office in Singapore. This ends
a period of more than three years where MacGregor has operated with a virtual
head office. In line with MacGregor's strategy execution the company wants to
strengthen its local presence in Asia and Michel van Roozendaal, President,
MacGregor will relocate to Singapore as of 1 October 2017. In addition Finance
and Sourcing operations will be led from Singapore. Consequently, Jani Oksanen,
Vice President, Finance, MacGregor, will as of 1 October be based in Singapore.
With a global customer base and large geographic span of operations, MacGregor
continues to have a strong leadership presence in Europe, where a majority of
the company's competence centers are located. "As a global market leader in
cargo and load handling serving our customers globally, a Head office in
Singapore is a natural fit for MacGregor as the majority of shipbuilding takes
place in Asia. Furthermore, close to 70% of MacGregor's Sourcing volume is
purchased from Asian vendors," states Michel van Roozendaal, President,
MacGregor.
The new Head office will be established in the company's existing premises in
Singapore, where MacGregor shares an office with its sister companies Hiab and
Kalmar.
