Zotefoams : backs EMEA and North America growth with senior sales appointments

About this update from Zotefoams Plc

Zotefoams , a global foam manufacturer whose advanced foam materials enable lightweight, high-performance applications for globally recognised brands such as Boeing, Airbus and Nike, has named new sales directors for EMEA and North America. The move comes as the business steps up its commercial focus in these two significant growth markets. The business has promoted Fabrice Lacroix to sales director, EMEA, and appointed Jason Ross as sales director, North America. The appointments mark a significant step in Zotefoams' growth plans as it sharpens its focus on customer engagement - backed by the recent flurry of senior appointments and continued recruitment drive in the US in particular - regional leadership and long-term market development. These are two strategically important moves for our global business at a time when we are increasing our focus on regions that are central to future growth. Fabrice brings continuity, trusted customer relationships and extensive market knowledge across EMEA. Oliver Ridd Group Commercial Director Fabrice has been with Zotefoams for more than 20 years and brings deep knowledge of the business, its customers and its markets to the role. During that time, he has held a series of commercial positions across the organisation and played an important role in developing T-FIT® and Zotefoams' aviation presence in Europe. He takes on EMEA leadership at a point when Zotefoams sees significant opportunity across the region, supported by a broader product portfolio, the recent OKC acquisition , and a growing customer pipeline. EMEA is a significant region for Zotefoams and one where we continue to see real opportunities for growth. We already have strong customer relationships, a broader product portfolio and a clear opening to build further momentum across the region. I'm looking forward to building on that in this new role. Fabrice Lacroix Sales Director, EMEA Over in the States, Jason joins Zotefoams with more than two decades of experience in speciality polymers and technical materials, having held senior roles at international businesses serving sectors including aerospace, medical and semiconductor. He takes on the role as Zotefoams sharpens its commercial focus in the region and places greater emphasis on customer proximity, market development and alignment with customer needs. Meanwhile, Jason adds experience, perspective and a strong track record in speciality materials and international commercial leadership. Together, they strengthen our ability to stay close to customers, support partners in delivering the quality we are known for and build momentum in two strategically important regions. Oliver Ridd Group Commercial Director The appointments also reflect a wider shift in how Zotefoams is aligning its commercial structure to growth opportunities in-market, with North America identified as a strategically important growth market and Europe seen as a strong base for the business. What attracted me to Zotefoams was the opportunity to help translate strong technical capability into closer customer engagement that supports long-term commercial growth. I'm also really excited about joining a team of passionate, customer-centric individuals and continuing to build upon the reputation Zotefoams has already established in really listening to the voice of the customer. "North America is an important market with significant headroom, and I'm looking forward to working with customers and partners to identify where Zotefoams can create the most value." Jason Ross Sales Director, North America They follow a series of recent moves to strengthen regional customer support, including the rollout of its Global Approved Partner Programme across Europe, North America and Asia.
