Prometeon Tyre Group creates AFME region, taps Stefano Ziliani as CEO: Tyremaker Prometeon Tyre Group has named Stefano Ziliani as CEO of its newly-created Africa and Middle East (AFME) region, which includes Egypt as a key market, the company said in a statement (pdf). The move is part of a broader global reorganization aimed at driving growth and improving local responsiveness in strategic markets, the company noted.
Ziliani brings more than 30 years of international manufacturing experience and has led Prometeon’s Egypt operations since 2021. He joined the company in 2018 after nearly two and a half decades at Whirlpool and Ariston Thermo, where he held leadership positions across six countries. In his new role, Ziliani will oversee a region that includes one of Prometeon’s four global production plants and one of its four R&D centers, both located in Egypt.
