Europe, as we enter the next phase in building a new business model in the region with the support of the Alliance,” the automaker said.
Wepierre joined MME in January 2020.
He said: “The unexpected events of 2020 brought a challenge that could not have been imagined just months before – to guide the company, our people and our business through an unprecedented set of circumstances. I feel extremely proud of what the whole MME team accomplished in this unique environment.”
John Signoriello – MMC’s executive officer, global marketing & sales said: “Since early last year Mitsubishi Motors Europe has been navigating through the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, whilst also making the necessary structural changes in relation to the implementation of MMC’s mid-term plan. We would like to thank Eric for his contribution in leading the company during this challenging period.”
