Interblock has appointed Marco Balliano as chief operating officer and president, EMEA.

The role brings manufacturing planning, quality, procurement and service operations together under one leader. He will focus on ensuring delivery operators can plan around responsive parts and service support, and consistent quality on every unit, in every market.

As president, EMEA, Balliano will lead the region commercially from Interblock’s headquarters in Mengeš, Slovenia, giving European operators a senior decision-maker in their own time zone. He will also spend significant time in the Americas and Asia-Pacific.

Balliano joins from Haier Europe Group, where he was general manager of the Food Preparation and Built-In Business Unit, leading a five-year strategic plan and the acquisition and integration of Elba. He previously held senior general management and marketing roles at Candy Group and Whirlpool Europe—businesses built on high-volume manufacturing, multi-country service networks and quality systems operating at scale.
