Bengtsson replaces Rosen at Cramo

Erik Bengtsson, 39, has been appointed senior vice president, Cramo Sverige (Sweden) and member of the Cramo Group management team effective June 15th, succeeding Magnus Rosen, who announced his departure from Cramo last year. Bengtsson will report to Cramo chief executive, Vesa Koivula.

Bengtsson joined Cramo in 2005 as product area manager for access equipment
and fork lifts. Later, that year he was appointed regional manager, Region
East, Cramo Sverige's largest region with 30 depots.

In relation to the appointment there is also a change in the reporting structure
whereby the managing directors of Cramo Denmark and Cramo Norway will report directly to Koivula instead of through Cramo Sverige's MD.

Koivula said: "In his three years at Cramo Erik Bengtsson has built a successful track record in several different areas. He is well known and respected in the entire Swedish operation and thus well equipped to take over the responsibility for the further development of our single largest business operation"
