Rational USA Names New President

Markus Glueck has assumed the management reins at Rational USA. He succeeds Björn Rowland, who will continue to be based at the firm’s Schaumburg, Ill., office as area v.p.-North America.

The German-born Glueck has worked in the United States for the last 10 years, most recently as president/CEO of WMF Americas Group, the North Carolina maker of flatware, tabletop and buffet equipment. “I look forward to further developing the U.S. market by offering maximum customer benefits together with our strong team and partners,” Glueck said.
