Jörg Bachmann joins Loxam in Germany
22 September 2011
Former MVS Zeppelin marketing manager Jörg Bachmann has joined Loxam's German company as director of business development.
Based in Berlin, Mr Bachmann will be responsible for growing Loxam's depot network in Germany and for assessing acquisition opportunities. He will report to Loxam's mergers and acquisitions department in Paris.
Mr Bachmann said he was very pleased to have returned to the equipment rental sector following his departure from MVS Zeppelin, and said his new post represented a "very big challenge and also a big opportunity in the coming years."
The appointment signals Loxam's intention to grow its German operation. Loxam has made significant acquisitions in both the Netherlands and France in the past year and Germany is a market that has not yet seen the same type of consolidation as in other European countries like France, Spain, Sweden and the UK.
