Cencorp Germany proudly announces the retirement of Mr.Benno Berwanger, a distinguished leader whose career has spanned several decades and significantly shaped our company’s success.
Career Journey and Achievements
Mr.Benno Berwanger began his remarkable journey in the electronics industry in 1983 as a Field Service Engineer at Universal Instruments. By 1995, he was an OF Product Manager, where he first encountered Mr. Markku Jokela, the former owner of PMJ, during a UK trade fair. This pivotal meeting led him to join PMJ Automec Oy as a Sales Manager for Western Europe, establishing the German Branch Office as a solo endeavor.
In 1999, the German Branch Office evolved into PMJ Deutschland GmbH, and Benno was appointed as the first Managing Director. The company was later renamed Cencorp Deutschland GmbH in 2005. Under his leadership, the company experienced significant growth and success. One of his many achievements includes selling the first cell in the German market in 1996, as well as successfully negotiating a major deal with Bosch Australia, despite the challenging time difference.
As Benno steps down from his role, he looks forward to enjoying a well-deserved retirement. He plans to return to his previous leisurely pursuits and spend quality time with his grandchildren, witnessing their growth without the constraints of business commitments.
