German manufacturer Kögel has appointed Krystian Smolski as its new sales manager for the Poland, Czech Republic and Baltic markets.

Born in Poland, Smolski will be tasked with picking up the pace of its support to its local customers, as well as concentrating on key accounts. The company said he was extremely familiar with the industry and market. Smolski will report directly to the Kögel managing director Massimo Dodoni.
