Former Bose man takes on sales and business development for valuable region
Community Professional Loudspeakers has announced the appointment of John Dodson to represent its sales and business development throughout the Middle East region.
Based in Dubai, Dodson was previously with Bose for 23 years. His positions included UK business development manager and national sales manager before he relocated to Dubai to direct Middle East and Africa sales operations 15 years ago.
“I am really pleased to be representing Community,” commented Dodson. “The company has an unequalled product range for all-weather applications on any scale and great products across all areas of the installation sector. With some very high profile projects in the Middle East already, the sales potential for the brand is substantial and I’m looking forward to advancing Community’s profile in the region.
The product development and technical support is outstanding and I really enjoy the personal approach to people and business in this increasingly corporate world.”
The appointment was supported by Community’s founder and president, Bruce Howze. “We are all very happy to welcome John to the team. He has a great attitude towards business development and customer relationships and his in-depth knowledge of the people, markets and applications are exactly right for the position.”
Community VP John Wiggins also commented: “Having John living in the region will greatly strengthen our support for customers and consultants and we’re looking forward to working with him. Community is greatly committed to growing our market share in the Middle East.”
