Which region are you responsible for as a Regional Sales Manager?

What are your ambitions at Roxell?
“Together with Roxell, I want to generate sustainable growth. The aim is to lead a high-performing company and a fantastic team. Keeping a team on board is always tricky, but I’m motivated to succeed.”
Where did you work prior to this?
“I worked all over the world in business development and the B2B industrial sector for 25 years. I also spent five years working in the agricultural world.”
“I first came into contact with Roxell at VIV Asia, a global trade show. But before I started attending various international trade shows, I had already heard of Roxell. They were part of the pig farming projects I was involved in, so this encounter didn’t come as a complete surprise to me.”
“In these difficult market conditions, I want to focus on the innovation of the products. Roxell is known for its innovative product portfolio with recognized, existing products, such as the iconic MiniMax feeder pan. In particular, I will focus on the Fortena chain feeding system, an innovative product that is the most suitable solution for transporting feed to hens in as complete a state as possible.
But also the complete 360° portfolio will be given my full attention, since Roxell offers a complete range for every type of poultry and pig farmer.”
“I believe in the opportunities in France. In Europe, Spain, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania and the UK have the most growth potential for us to make a difference with our innovative 360° portfolio. See it as leverage to create value for the end customers with our distributors.”
“I am looking forward to building strong collaborations with our international distributors’ network.”
