Kitron: Changes to management team
(2021-09-08) Kristoffer Asklöv has joined Kitron as
Chief Operating Officer.
Mr. Asklöv has more than 20 years of experience from electronics
production, with companies such as Partnertech and Toyota. Most
recently he was Vice President, Business Development
& Central European sales at the Finnish EMS
company Scanfil.
“I really look forward to getting to know Kitron even
better. I’ve obviously followed the company from the outside,
and I’m impressed by the growth and development. This is a
good time for the EMS industry in general, but I do believe that
Kitron as an individual company has also positioned
itself very well, fast on its feet and close to the
customers,” Mr. Asklöv said.
Kitron President and CEO Peter Nilsson has previously worked
with Mr. Asklöv at Partnertech, and he is looking forward to
joining forces again:
"Kristoffer will be an excellent addition to the Kitron
management team. He has a broad understanding of our industry, both
the technical and the commercial side, and I know he will bring a
wealth of knowledge, enthusiasm and drive to Kitron," said Mr.
Nilsson.
Mr. Asklöv will take over the responsibilities until now held by
Israel Losada Salvador, who has resigned to join solar energy
company Norsun as CEO. He will stay on in a transition role until
the end of September.
"I would like to thank Israel for a tremendous job since joining
Kitron eight years ago. He has played a key role in transitioning
the company to where it is today, a well-run and profitable company
with exciting growth opportunities, not least associated with the
megatrend of electrification. We wish him the best of luck as he
continues to explore this area in his new role," said Mr.
Nilsson
