Tsunehisa Suita is the new man in the Lewa Group
Since September 1, Tsunehisa Suita has been managing the pump and system manufacturer Lewa together with Stefan Glasmeyer and Dr. Martin Fiedler. The previous CEO Peter Wagner will move to the American group of companies Cryogenic Industries, which was only taken over by parent company Nikkiso Co., Ltd. in August 2017. He will continue to be supported there by Hisanao Amino, who had already acted as Chief Financial Officer for Wagner in Germany.
Wagner and Amino will be replaced at the Lewa headquarters in Leonberg, Baden-Württemberg, by economist Tsunehisa Suita. The 58-year-old, who has an MBA from the University of Washington and thirty years of experience in the international corporate arena, has already held several important positions at Nikkiso since 2010: first as Director and Senior Executive Manager, then as General Manager of the Medical Division and the Corporate Planning Division. Suita sees the role in Leonberg as a welcome new challenge and intends to further strengthen the company's growth trajectory.
Suita completes the Group's new management team, which has already included Stefan Glasmeyer (CSO) and Dr. Martin Fiedler (COO) since the beginning of 2013. Responsibility for Sales & Marketing and Operations in the Group's Executive Board remains unchanged for both.
