Husqvarna moves Andreas Rangert to North American president position
As of April 3, 2024, Husqvarna North American President, Matt Nuijens, stepped down and left Husqvarna after a short transition period. With this change, Andreas Rangert, current president of Husqvarna’s emerging markets and Pacific business unit, will assume leadership of the North American business immediately. Andreas is relocating to the United States and will be based in Charlotte, N.C.
Andreas has more than 25 years of experience in the Husqvarna Group spanning many different roles from R&D, product and category management, sales and service to most recently leading the emerging markets and Pacific business unit within Husqvarna Forest & Garden, which covers the mature markets in the Pacific and emerging markets in Latin America, Central America, Africa, Middle East and Asia.
“North America remains one of our most important markets and is vital to our strategy,” said Glen Instone, president of Husqvarna Forest and Garden. “We are committed to the continued focus on our winning portfolio of products, services and solutions including our global position as a leader in robotic turf care.”
