SCM Group, a leading Italian manufacturer of high technology equipment for woodworking, finishing, plastic, stone and glass application, has named Max Salmi its marketing operation manager for North America.
Salmi joins SCM Group with more than eighteen years in the marketing and visual communication fields, five of which were spent marketing high technology equipment for another Italian woodworking machinery manufacturer. Max’s expertise in developing, maintaining, marketing and supporting relationships within the distribution channel, service providers and sales group will be a key factor for the future growth of SCM Group North America.
“There are strong signs that the industry is finally recovering from the recession; and I believe that Max’s great knowledge of all the newest technological trends, strategic branding, and marketing will be the key support to our success,” says John Gangone, president of SCM Group North America. “We are very pleased to have Max aboard with our group.
