Tomra ASA, which designs and operates machines that are used for people dropping off used beverage containers, has announced plans to reorganize its operations.
In order to create a structure to increase the operational focus within the comapny, several organizational changes have been made.
A process has been initiated to split Business Unit Europe into three regions as follows:
* Nordic, consisting of Norway, Denmark, Finland and Sweden, will be led by Håkan Erngren, who is the current manager of the Swedish operation;
* Germany, based on its size and potential, will be a separate region, and will be led by Heiner Bevers; and
* Central Europe, consisting of the operations in BeNeLux, Austria, Switzerland, Poland and France, will form a separate region.
The transformation process in Europe will be managed by André Løvestam, president of Business Unit Europe. When the process is concluded, the three regional managers will report directly to CEO Amund Skarholt.
The TRC project in the United Kingdom, managed by Terje Hanserud, has been transferred from the Recycling Solutions unit to Technology, which is led by Harald Henriksen.
The company also announced that the Recycling Solutions division has been renamed to Business Development. It will consist of TiTech, Orwak Group, Japan and business development in general. The Business Development unit will be led by Trond K. Johannessen.
The company also announced that Fredrik Witte, investor relations officer, will take over as CFO in the North American business unit, starting Sept. 1.
