Adnan Cemal will become the new Managing Director of Hella Gutmann Solutions with effect from 1 July 2023. He succeeds Rolf Kunold (44), who has been heading the leading workshop specialist Hella Gutmann since January 2018 and will leave the company at his own request on 30 June 2023.

Adnan Cemal (46) is a graduate industrial engineer (FH) and has already been working since 2017 at HELLA, an internationally positioned automotive supplier operating under the FORVIA umbrella brand and parent company of Hella Gutmann Solutions.

Adnan Cemal has many years of experience in the spare parts business, a strong logistics background and in-depth knowledge of international markets," says Stefan van Dalen, Managing Director Lifecycle Solutions at HELLA. "At the same time, we owe Rolf Kunold a great debt of gratitude. He has played a key role in ensuring that Hella Gutmann is excellently positioned as a leading expert in multi-brand diagnostics and sensor calibration and has also successfully continued to drive forward the company's digital transformation."
