Ezequiel Ivitz

Dellner Bubenzer has appointed Ezequiel Ivitz as managing director, Latin America as it ramps up in the region.

Dellner relaunched last month as Dellner Bubenzer, incorporating Dellner Brakes JHS, Dellner Brakes, Dellner Industrial, Pintsch Bubenzer and Rima.

Ivitz, who is based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, joins the recently rebranded company after overseeing operations in the same region for Cavotec, a manufacturer of automated connection and electrification systems.

Ivitz says he was impressed with the quality and professionalism of the Dellner products and team. "That said, we have a big challenge in front of us. It's clear that COVID has impacted all industries and countries in the region, and we will need more time to recover than others. However, the prospects and long-term opportunities we have remain intact."

Ivitz will principally oversee Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Peru, Colombia, Panama and other markets in Central America. While Argentina itself might not be enjoying the economic stability of neighbouring countries, Ivitz is well placed to spearhead plans for aggressive growth across Latin America. He stresses the importance of mines and ports in all these areas.

Dellner Bubenzer also has an office in Brazil, where Cesar Bueno serves as managing director. Supported by a multilingual staff across the Americas, Ivitz and Bueno will provide a focal point for sales and service close to the point of use in Latin America.
