AIDA appoints two presidents

Following its recent acquisitions of Manzoni and Rovetta, AIDA has announced that Troy Roberts was named president of AIDA-America and Masaharu Sakaki was named president of AIDA-Europe. Both men bring a broad range of experience to their new roles, the company says.

"Each of us has held a variety of positions at different AIDA divisions," Roberts said. "In addition to bringing a unique perspective to our current roles, we will use our understanding of the world market to enhance service to our respective regions while leveraging AIDA's global strength for our customers. The synergy between our sister divisions will also be strengthened," he said.
