Continental, the leading German tyre and automotive technology firm, has made significant leadership changes within its Middle East operations aimed at strengthening its commitment to delivering exceptional products and services.

 

Continental has welcomed back José De la Fuente as the Managing Director for the Middle East. De la Fuente brings a wealth of experience and expertise, having successfully led Continental's operations in Mexico for the past five years. His time in Mexico showcased outstanding leadership and strategic acumen contributing to the growth and success of the company in the region. 

 

As he returns to the Middle East, following his previous position as General Director for Tyres in Mexico, De la Fuente's dynamic leadership style and strategic vision are set to drive Continental’s continued success and innovation across the region.

 

Important market

De la Fuente said: "It is a privilege to rejoin the Middle East team and build upon the solid foundation that has already been established. The Middle East is a strategically important market for Continental, and I look forward to collaborating with our talented team to deliver pioneering solutions that meet the evolving needs of our dealers, customers, and strategic partners."

 

To further strengthen the leadership team, Continental has announced the appointment of Dustine Gascoyne as Sales Director for Continental Middle East. Gascoyne assumes this role with a remarkable track record of accomplishments, having previously held the role of Managing Director Continental Tyre Saudi Arabia. 

 

His in-depth understanding of the regional market dynamics, coupled with his strong sales expertise, makes him the ideal leader to further drive Continental's market presence and customer relationships across the Middle East.

 

Driving the brand forward

Gascoyne commented: " I am eager to work closely with our dedicated team to bring our customers and partners the highest quality products and services, fostering long-lasting relationships and driving the brand forward."

 

These leadership changes come at a pivotal time for Continental as the company continues to focus on innovation, sustainability, and customer satisfaction across its diverse range of products and solutions.
