Sabri Demirel has just taken over as new Managing Director of Romaco North America, Romaco’s Sales & Service Center in the United States. He succeeds Charles Ravalli, who has retired after establishing Romaco’s East Coast facility in 2014.
 
Sabri Demirel gained a degree in Electrical Engineering and Business Administration from the University of Würzburg before embarking on a professional career in the packaging industry in the year 2000. In 2005, he crossed the Atlantic, working for 19 years in total in executive positions in sales and customer service at a leading German manufacturer of packaging technologies.
 
“We’re delighted to have such an experienced and competent manager as Sabri Demirel on board as successor to Charles Ravalli,” said Jörg Pieper, CEO Romaco Group. “As a US resident with European roots, he’s the ideal choice to overcome the barriers between the two business worlds and further strengthen Romaco’s presence in North America.” 
 
“Romaco’s key advantage is the comprehensive product portfolio mapping the entire pharmaceutical process chain,” Sabri emphasized. “All in all, the American market is very service-oriented. Our customers expect to have someone here local who is thoroughly trained and familiar with the equipment. With this setup Romaco is perfectly positioned to provide first class service in North America.”
