Autoquip Corporation<\/a> has named Gauthier Pierozak general manager. Pierozak succeeds Chris Kuehni, who is retiring after more than four decades in engineered equipment manufacturing and many years of dedicated leadership at Autoquip<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With more than 30 years of experience in industrial manufacturing, engineering, and commercial leadership, Pierozak brings a strong track record of driving growth, developing customer partnerships, and leading high-performing teams.<\/p>\n

Most recently, he served as Vice President of Commercial at Cimarron Energy, where he led sales, business development, and key account initiatives across the energy sector.<\/p>\n

A mechanical engineer who is fluent in both English and French, Pierozak has built an international career leading organizations through growth, operational excellence, and customer-focused innovation. His experience aligns well with Autoquip<\/a>\u2019s commitment to delivering engineered lifting, material handling, and automation solutions that solve complex customer challenges.<\/p>\n

Building on a Strong Foundation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pierozak will oversee Autoquip<\/a>\u2019s family of brands, including Autoquip<\/a>, OSCO Controls, J.A. Becker, and Vasari Car Lifts.<\/p>\n

He will lead the organization as it continues expanding its engineered lifting capabilities, strengthening its manufacturing operations, and growing its presence in key industrial markets.<\/p>\n

\u201cAutoquip<\/a> has built an outstanding reputation for engineering excellence, product quality, and customer commitment,\u201d said Pierozak.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to join such a talented team and help build on that legacy while continuing to invest in innovation, operational excellence, and exceptional customer service.\u201d<\/p>\n

Autoquip Corporation has named Gauthier Pierozak general manager.<\/p><\/div>\n

Positioned for Continued Growth<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pierozak joins Autoquip<\/a> during an exciting period of growth as the company continues expanding its portfolio of lifting and automation solutions.<\/p>\n

Recent investments in manufacturing capabilities, engineering resources, and the integration of J.A. Becker\u2019s heavy-duty lifting technologies further strengthen Autoquip<\/a>\u2019s ability to serve customers across North America and around the world.<\/p>\n

His leadership will help advance Autoquip<\/a>\u2019s long-term strategy of delivering innovative, application-focused solutions while maintaining the company\u2019s longstanding commitment to quality, safety, and customer success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
