SKF Appoints New Canadian President
The SKF Group announced that effective February 1, 2008, João Ricciarelli has been appointed president of SKF Canada Limited.
Ricciarelli has held various executive management responsibilities within SKF, most recently in Europe, where he was responsible for key account management and reliability systems sales growth. His background includes executive level strategic growth responsibilities, key account management and reliability systems division responsibilities.
Ricciarelli succeeds Jan Lindhe, who has enjoyed a 40 year career with SKF in several different countries, including the past 17 years as president of SKF Canada. Lindhe had told mromagazine.com in mid-2007 that he planned to retire around the end of the year.
