CEAT has appointed Vishal Pawar as Senior Vice President - Global Sales and Supply Chain, effective 1 July, 2024. Vishal Pawar, who was leading the Replacement Sales division at the company as Vice President, will succeed Saurav after a 4-year stint.
Vishal Pawar brings extensive experience to his new role. An engineering graduate from the College of Engineering Pune and a management graduate from SIBM, he began his career with TAFE Limited in Chennai as a Management Trainee. He first joined CEAT in 2005 as Category Head before moving into sales and serving a successful stint as the Zonal Sales Head for the South.
In 2019, Pawar transitioned to Garware Technical Fibres before returning to CEAT, where he rose to become Vice President of India’s largest aftermarket sales division. His wealth of experience and proven track record make him the ideal candidate to lead CEAT's global sales and supply chain efforts.
Arnab Banerjee, MD & CEO of CEAT, said, "Vishal's deep understanding of the industry, combined with his strategic vision and leadership capabilities, makes him the perfect fit to drive our global sales and supply chain initiatives.
I am confident that under his leadership, CEAT will continue to strengthen its market position and achieve new heights. I would also like to express our sincere thanks to Saurav Mukherjee for his significant contributions to the company. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours."
Vishal Pawar said, “My primary focus will be on capability development and strengthening processes, which I believe makes the strong foundation of any sustainable business.”
