Yokohama TWS has appointed Elio Bartoli its new president, effective Dec. 1. He replaces Paolo Pompei, who is leaving the company.
“Elio Bartoli brings a strong display of leadership experience, including the last 12 years in various strategic roles at Yokohama TWS,” say Yokohama TWS officials. “His tenure has included positions such as commercial leader of industrial tires and most recently, president of the EMEA Region and global OE leader. In these roles, he consistently demonstrated outstanding leadership across both commercial and operational functions, driving significant growth and delivering exceptional business results.
“Elio’s deep expertise spans the entire supply chain, commercial strategy, and customer relations. His people-centric leadership style, coupled with his strong track record of fostering collaboration and innovation, makes him the ideal choice to lead Yokohama TWS into the next phase of its evolution.
"We are thrilled to welcome Elio as our new President," says Nitin Mantri, co-COO of Yokohama and head of the company’s OHT division. "His deep industry knowledge, strategic vision and customer focus make him the perfect leader to guide Yokohama TWS into its next phase of growth. We are confident that under Elio’s leadership, the company will continue to deliver exceptional value to our customers, partners, and stakeholders."
Pompei will become the new president and CEO of Nokian Tyres plc on Jan. 1, 2025, “at the latest,” Nokian officials announced several months ago. He will replace Jukka Moisio at Nokian.
