Reinforcement of NOTE's Industrial Plants


Reinforcement of NOTE's Industrial Plants

During the autumn, NOTE has strengthened the commercial capacity of its
Industrial Plants. The former Presidents of NOTE's Estonian and Chinese
businesses will take on responsibility for these units' direct business,
but also reinforce the interface internally to other NOTE units.The
ambition is to create the prospects for sales growth in new types of
business where NOTE has not previously been competitive enough, and to
satisfy customers' logistical, commercial and technological needs even
better and faster to develop existing business relationships

New Presidents with sector experience have been hired at NOTE's units in
Estonia and China. Erki Hirv is the new President of NOTE's Industrial
Plant in China, and joins NOTE from a position as CEO of Leab in
Estonia, although also has previous experience as President of NOTE in
Estonia. Rafet Peksen, formerly CEO of Powerwave in Estonia, is the new
President of NOTE in Estonia.

“Our former Presidents know our business and our customers, and going
forward, will be focusing on developing our business. Simultaneously, we
have hired two highly skilled individuals to manage the future
development of our Estonian and Chinese businesses. This is a natural
step in our work of creating the prospects for greater efficiency,
higher delivery precision and quality levels, which is intended to
create an even stronger customer offering,” commented Peter Laveson,
President and CEO of NOTE.
