Curtiss-Wright Corp.’s Industrial division July 17 announced a further strengthening of its global distribution network with the appointment of GB Automotive Ltda, who will represent the Industrial Group product brands in Brazil.
With independent sales partners throughout Brazil and offices in Itu and Santos near São Paulo, GB Automotive – the South American partner of Global Alliance Automotive – represents many significant component manufacturers in the Brazilian market with a customer portfolio that boasts prestigious OEMs including BMW Group, CAT, Eaton, John Deere and Mercedes-Benz.
But, as Curtiss-Wright Industrial division’s Senior Vice President & General Manager Kevin Rayment explains, GB Automotive is more than just a distributor. “The company supplies nearly all passenger car, truck and off-road OEMs and Tier 1 & 2 manufacturers, but is also recognized as offering outstanding commercial and technical representation together with market research and localization studies within Brazil’s automotive industry.”
