Tommi Ekman has been appointed as Logest’s CEO and will begin his new position in late 2019.

Ekman previously worked at John Deere Forestry as the General Manager of Marketing & Order Fulfillment. He has 19 years of experience within the global forest machinery industry and worked several years for John Deere and Waratah Forestry Attachment.

“When they contacted me, I didn’t hesitate to seize the opportunity,” says Ekman. “Logset’s leadership in hybrid technology, its investments in distribution, and its modern, high-end products convinced me that the company can reach its growth goals.”

“With Tommi Ekman, we will have a real forest machine man in the company management,” says Chairman of the Board Tapio Nikkanen. “Tommi can increase our competence and expertise in all our business areas and operations .”
