W&O Hires European Manager

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--()--W&O, one of the world’s largest suppliers of marine valves, pipe, fittings, engineered products, valve automation and data management systems, announced today that it has hired Kristof Adam as European Manager. Kristof’s hire is part of W&O’s corporate transformation during the past year to provide more senior-level leadership of its branches to better serve its customers and foster continued growth.

“Since opening our second European branch in Rotterdam two years ago, we have seen consistent growth in the European market,” said Michael Hume, President and CEO of W&O. “This increased demand for our products and services has created the need to have a senior-level manager oversee all European operations to better identify opportunities for future growth. Kristof has a deep understanding of Europe’s marine industry and already has a network of relationships to leverage and help secure these growth opportunities, having served in a variety of leadership positions with Hydrex and Subsea Industries, both of which are based in Antwerp.”

Kristof is tasked with managing the teams at both the Rotterdam, Netherlands and Antwerp, Belgium branches, and with leveraging W&O’s international presence to bring a higher level of service to customers in all major marine markets throughout Europe.
