BROMMA, SWEDEN – As of Oct. 1, Peter Kruk is the new CEO of NCAB Group. He replaces Hans Ståhl, who is retiring after 17 years.

“I joined NCAB in 2003, and after a while understood the beauty of the concept, outsource the actual manufacturing and handle the most critical part ourselves: the relationship with the customer,” said Ståhl. “The years at NCAB have been fantastic, and our success is due to all the skilled, smart and dedicated employees. They are the reason we have grown faster than our competitors.

“I am happy to welcome Peter Kruk onboard, and I feel both confident and enthusiastic for him taking up this position. I will fully remain in my role until Peter begins to ensure a smooth introduction and transition. Thereafter, I will leave the operating responsibilities but remain an engaged board member and owner.”

Kruk was previously president of the EMEA region at Dometic Group.

“Apart from knowing NCAB from a customer perspective at Stoneridge, I have during the last couple of months had the opportunity to meet with Hans and other people in the organization,” said Kruk. “Taking part in NCAB’s virtual event was a great way for me to further get an insight into the company culture. I have very much looked forward to my starting date, and together with the organization continue the excellent development that the company has had under Hans’ leadership.”
