Lufthansa Technik is extending its sales presence for customers of the VIP & Special Mission Aircraft Services product division in Asia. This customer segment will be supported with immediate effect by two new sales offices in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Mr. Stelios Panitsas (47) will fill this role from Singapore, whereas Mr. Jan Grube (47) will take care of the Hong Kong office, as well as he is heading Lufthansa Technik´s sales team for VIP & Special Mission Aircraft for Asia.

The enhanced presence is a further step in the expansion of the Lufthansa Technik sales organization in the regions in general. Having contacts on site improves customer service, enables faster response times to customer queries and allows greater flexibility in handling individual customer requests.
