German oil and additive specialist LIQUI MOLY has appointed a new director for its increasingly important export business. Salvatore Coniglio takes up the position having previously been the deputy export director.
Because of its strong position in the German domestic market, where further growth opportunity is more limited, LIQUI MOLY places great emphasis on its export activity. The export business is already responsible for significantly more than half of sales at the company.
Salvatore Coniglio joined LIQUI MOLY in 2001 and has been deputy export director for more than 10 years. In his new position he follows CEO Ernst Prost. Prost provisionally took over management of the export department in 2016. Ernst commented, “Salvatore Coniglio knows the company inside and out. He is the right man to keep LIQUI MOLY on an international road to success and to keep up with the many big oil companies in our competition."
