Prime Mover in Company’s Next Chapter of Expansion

Peli Products, best-known for its high-performance protective cases, temperature-controlled packaging solutions and advanced portable lighting systems, has appointed Piero Marigo as President of International Business.

Reporting direct to Phil Gyori, CEO of parent company Pelican Products, Marigo will have oversight of Peli’s business in Europe/Middle East/Africa/India (EMEAI), Asia and Australia. He assumed his new role on 30 March.

Marigo joined Peli Products in 2010, as Managing Director of the then EMEA region. Under his leadership, there has been continued expansion, and implementation of several new strategies –  such as opening key business offices, production and distribution centres throughout the region – leading to revenue almost doubling.

In his new role, which he will conduct from the EMEAI headquarters in Barcelona, Spain, Marigo will be responsible for overall direction and strategy of the 50+ countries making up the region, as well as for Asia and Australia.

“Piero Marigo’s impressive track record makes him the ideal leader to head our international division as President of International Business,” commented Gyori. “His proven leadership acumen and expertise in growing our business across diverse regions, to now include Australia and Asia, in addition to EMEAI, will be invaluable to the company as we enter a new chapter of expansion.”

Prior to joining Peli, Marigo held management positions with General Electric. He graduated from both the University of California, San Diego and the Università di Padova, where he studied Chemical Engineering. He also received an MBA from INSEAD, France.
