Massey Ferguson changes its Europe & Middle-East organization. Vice President & Managing Director Massey Ferguson EME Thierry Lhotte will leave the company. His position will be taken over by Marco Mazzaferri.
Thierry Lhotte started his career in Massey Ferguson 37 years ago and successfully held various roles in the Company. He started in After-Sales, evolved into Marketing, Sales, led & restructured Fendt & Valtra France at the time AGCO purchased these brands. In his career Thierry demonstrated a strong engagement in all projects he was given, as well as his commitment to making the Beauvais site more competitive, to the improvement of customer satisfaction and to the success of Massey Ferguson even beyond the EME Region.
“I want to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to Thierry for his contributions to AGCO”, says Luis Felli, Senior Vice President & General Manager Massey Ferguson. “His vision will continue to inspire the brand as we move forward. Thierry will stay in the organization until the end of August, which will allow a good handover with his successor, added Luis Felli. “Effective immediately, I am pleased to announce that Marco Mazzaferri is being promoted to Vice President & Managing Director Massey Ferguson EME”.
Marco joined AGCO in 2015 in Italy and since then has had several roles in our organization in Europe, such as National Sales Manager for Fendt & Valtra, Global Director of Sales Enablement and Marketing for Massey Ferguson and most recently Sales Director MF EME. He holds a Bachelor Degree in Engineering from the University of Perugia.
Marco’s main priority is to grow the MF business in the region, increasing market share and profitability. He will also be appointed the President of AGCO SAS and AGCO Distribution SAS, Member of AGCO Finance France Supervisory Board and Chairman of AGCO France Central Workers Councils.
