Last but not least, his undisputed track record of successfully growing sales and service business, working with internal stake holders, including Sales and technical teams to achieve sales target will cater for highest customer satisfaction and the daily motivation of his teams.
At Interroll, Keith will primarily focus on expanding the company’s market position in the segments of airports and distribution centers as well as courier, postal services, pharmaceutical and consumer goods companies by exploiting growth potential in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. In addition, Keith will be part of the APAC Management Team to continue our longlasting success story with customers in the APAC region.
In 1988, Interroll launched its business activities in the Asian market with the establishment of a representative office in Singapore. The company has continually expanded its market position in Asia since then, with subsidiaries in Thailand, Japan, China, and Korea.
