Bosch realigns North American automotive aftermarket organization

Aug. 7, 2015
Effective July 1, 2015, Robert "Bobby" Bloom, senior vice president automotive aftermarket, assumed oversight of the Bosch Aftermarket Canadian operations in addition to his existing U.S. responsibilities. 

Odd Joergenrud, regional president North America, Robert Bosch LLC, Automotive Aftermarket, has announced a change in the division’s organizational structure to address the needs of a rapidly changing market and to provide enhanced support to all channel partners in the U.S. and Canada.

Effective July 1, 2015, Robert "Bobby" Bloom, senior vice president automotive aftermarket, assumed oversight of the Bosch Aftermarket Canadian operations in addition to his existing U.S. responsibilities. Reporting to Bloom, Niall Davidson will continue in his current role as vice president of sales/general manager of Bosch Automotive Aftermarket in Canada.

For Canadian customers, this realignment will be seamless. They will continue to work with their current Bosch Aftermarket Canada team on a day-to-day basis; but that team will now have enhanced resources at their disposal to provide an even better customer experience.

“Uniting both operations under a single structure creates synergies within all functional areas that will enable increased agility and speed, resulting in even greater customer satisfaction,” Joergenrud commented.

Bosch is the world’s largest supplier of automotive systems and components to original equipment manufacturers and the aftermarket, and an innovative leader in gasoline and diesel fuel technologies. This realignment further establishes Bosch Automotive Aftermarket North America as a world-class, customer-focused organization promoting awareness and engagement at all levels.
