“The Webasto Group sees an immense amount of growth potential in North America. Mark Denny has a proven track record of bringing steady, sustainable growth to the companies he has led in the past, and we know he’ll do the same for our Thermo & Comfort group,” said Axel Schulmeyer, chairman of the management board, Webasto Thermo & Comfort SE.
