Agr International has announced the appointment of Martin Küstner (shown left) and Davide Bartoli (right) to strategic international positions within the organisation.
These appointments are a continuation of the company’s ongoing plans to strengthen and expand its sales and service organisations, in order to better support the needs of customers throughout the world.
A 20 year veteran at Agr International, Martin Küstner is named International Sales Director, overseeing all worldwide sales-related activities, with the exception of the USA and Canada.
Mr Küstner previously headed Agr’s Asian operations, where he was instrumental in establishing a sales and service centre in Bangkok, Thailand. He was also responsible for developing a regional sales network throughout Asia that has consistently contributed to business growth.
Davide Bartoli, another 20 year veteran at Agr, takes on the position of International Service Director, overseeing all service and repair-related activities outside the USA and Canada. Mr Bartoli has served Agr in a number of roles including regional European Service Manager, Sales Engineer and most recently, Director of Training. In his latest role, Mr Bartoli applied his thorough knowledge of Agr equipment and implemented programmes to train both Agr employees and customers in the support and operation of Agr equipment.
His knowledge and experience of technology to facilitate remote and virtual field support will prove invaluable in this latest role, especially when faced with limitations on travel and face-to-face meetings due to Covid-19.
“AGR and its international customers will benefit immensely as Martin Küstner and Davide Bartoli assume executive roles within AGR’s sales and service management team” commented COO Robert Cowden. “Both individuals understand how to support their customers in order to consistently achieve operational success. These successes are a main ingredient to AGR’s longstanding, global franchise.”
