The company, owner of the Brastemp, Consul and KitchenAid brands, said the moves aim to speed up regional integration and boost operational agility. Barbery brings 19 years of experience at the firm and has previously led operations in multiple countries in the region as well as global initiatives in finance and marketing.
In the same restructuring, Jorge Giordan takes the role of vice president of Engineering and Product Marketing for Latin America. Executive Mercedes Esclusa was appointed general manager for Latin America North and South, working alongside Barbery to align operations and drive regional growth.
