ROME (ITALPRESS) – Stellantis has announced that Fabio Catone will succeed Eric Laforge as head of the Jeep brand in Europe, effective immediately. Laforge will pursue other opportunities outside of Stellantis. Cato brings with him extensive experience in the automotive industry, including business development, sales planning, supply chain and purchasing. Since 2007, his career has included key roles at Stellantis – in the Jeep, Ram and Dodge brands across Europe – as well as at Fca Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, and he will be instrumental in driving the continued growth and success of the Jeep brand in the European market. “First and foremost, I would like to thank Eric for his outstanding work, which has contributed significantly to the success of the Jeep brand, and wish him all the best in his new job position,” said Jean-Philippe Imparato, Stellantis’ Chief Operating Officer for Wider Europe. “At the same time, I express my full confidence in Fabio, who has solid experience in the automotive industry and will be able to give new impetus to the Jeep brand in all our markets by leading our organization in the Wider Europe region,” he added.
