DKSH’s Business Unit Performance Materials, a specialty chemicals distributor, nominated Mathias Greger as head of its North American operation. Greger has been working with the Swiss-based market expansion services group over the past years, leading the in-house consulting team in Kuala Lumpur. Prior to joining DKSH, he worked for the chemicals division of Mitsui & Co., being in charge for sales and business development in Central and Eastern Europe.

In his new role, Greger will focus on overall growth activities in the North American market by acquiring new suppliers, strengthening relationships with key suppliers, and expanding the customer base in the specialty chemicals and personal care industries. The Group recently concluded some supply deals with major U.S. companies. Thanks to its comprehensive network in Asia as well as global relationships, it is the perfect partner for other major U.S. firms looking to expand their business.
