Truma North America’s President and CEO Gerhard Hundsberger is taking on a second role within the Truma global organization: director of sales and markets overseas for Truma Gerätetechnik GmbH and Co.KG.
This new position was created as part of a strategic plan to further internationalize the organization, Truma said. Hundsberger will be responsible for overseeing the development and growth of Truma’s interests in the Asia-Pacific region as well as North America. Eduard Schrall of Germany will be his European counterpart as the director of sales and European markets.
“We own the market share in Europe, and over the last decade, we have been incredibly successful in growing the North American market. In that time, we have also established a location in China as well as a joint venture partnership in Australia. I will be focusing on identifying opportunities for growth in those regions,” said Hundsberger.
Hundsberger will still be based in Elkhart, Indiana, as a member of the Truma North America executive team and said he looks forward to continuing to expand system offerings in the U.S. and Canada in 2024.
Since 2013, Truma North America has provided solutions for outdoor living in the United States and Canada from their headquarters in Elkhart. The German-founded RV supplier has 75 years of experience providing comfort systems like instant water heaters, furnaces, air conditioners and portable refrigerators/freezers to the global recreation market.
