Francesco Marangio is the new EUROPART Country Manager

Europe

Hagen/Turin, 18.02.2013. EUROPART, Europe’s leading commercial enterprise for commercial vehicle parts and workshop requirements, wants to reinforce its international presence and to establish a new network in Italy. The new EUROPART Country Manager, Francesco Marangio, will take charge of the establishment of a national infrastructure and a demand-based customer support service in Italy. With Francesco Marangio, EUROPART has gained a very competent new Country Manager who is an authority on the Italian market. Marangio has many years of experience both in automotive spare parts trade and in setting up and optimising dealer organisations. Amongst other things, during his time in various management positions in the Fiat Group, the 40-year old engineer was responsible for spare parts sales for several brands as well as dealership development. Most recently, Marangio managed the expansion of the European service and spare parts network of an international agricultural machinery manufacturer.

„I’m really looking forward to my new job at EUROPART,“ said Francesco Marangio. „As the fifth biggest transport market in Europe, Italy offers vast potential for EUROPART. I’m convinced that our concept will meet the requirements of the Italian customers for high availability and fast delivery of branded spare parts from major suppliers of all leading truck, bus and trailer brands, as well as parts and workshop requirements for our own EUROPART brand. Across Europe, many international transport companies already rely on the service provided by EUROPART – and in future this will be the case in Italy too.“ As a major brand-independent commercial vehicle parts dealer in Europe, EUROPART not only supplies specialist commercial vehicle workshops, but also transport companies undertaking their own repairs as well as municipal and on-site traffic. The offering ranges from fixing materials to spare parts of all kinds and diagnostic devices, as well as oils, greases and chemicals for workshop requirements.

EUROPART will present itself to the Italian public at the Autopromotec trade fair from May 22-26 in Bologna. Francesco Marangio will be waiting at hall 21, stand B15 to show you information on future activities in Italy.
