Grundfos appoints new president and general manager for its Water Utility business

He will oversee and direct all operations in Grundfos’s Water Utility division including the company’s recently opened service centre.

Sauer, who has more than 20 years of pump experience, most recently served as president of chemical metering pump manufacturer Pulsafeeder Inc.

Duncan Cooper, regional managing director for Grundfos North America, said: “Dieter brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience in the industrial, wastewater and municipal water management sector. His strong leadership skills and his significant achievements in both sales and production areas complement our existing strategies and plans.”

“I look forward to working with our team in Aurora to achieve our ambitious goal of doubling regional revenues to US$1 billion,” said Sauer. “We will continue to expand our business and support our partners through innovative techniques and service.”

Grundfos’s operations in Aurora include office, warehouse and manufacturing facilities, and a service centre which opened in November 2013.
