TOMY strengthens its European business

Leading infant and preschool company TOMY has announced a number of changes across its international senior management team, designed to further global strategy and strengthen its European business.

TOMY International president Pete Henseler and chief operating officer Greg Kilrea will take on responsibility for overseeing the European business, in addition to their North America and Latin America business.

“With this change, we are well-positioned to execute our ongoing strategy to more closely align our TOMY International regions in order to continue expanding our global footprint,” said Kazuhiro Kojima, TOMY’s president and chief operating officer.

He continued; “We have been working closely with our management teams throughout Europe and the Americas in this effort. Integrating the management reporting under Pete and Greg will help to continue this global alignment.”

The changess took place after Mark Foster, former executive vice president of TOMY Europe, left the organisation earlier this month. Mary Wood, who joined TOMY UK last year from Vivid, will remain at the helm of the UK business reporting in to the global team.
