Fairpoint<br />

Outdoors has<br />

signed Marc<br />

Bierwolf as<br />

country manager<br />

covering<br />

Germany, Austria<br />

and Switzerland<br />

(DACH).<br />

Marc will<br />

be taking over<br />

the role from<br />

Dietmar Isaiasch<br />

who will move<br />

to a new position Marc Bierwolf<br />

focused on<br />

marketing and<br />

product development.<br />

Together, Marc and Dietmar will cover the largest fishing tackle<br />

market in Europe and provide Fairpoint’s customers with an even<br />

better service.<br />

Fairpoint’s CSO Europe and founder Thomas Petersen<br />

explained: “We are thrilled to bring Marc on board. He brings<br />

many years of experience from the region to the table, and I expect<br />

him to hit the ground running. With his skills and track record we<br />

are all set to take our business in the region to the next level.<br />

“Dietmar has done a fantastic job for the company as country<br />

manager Germany and it is time for him to move into a new role,<br />

which also has a big place in his heart – marketing and product<br />

development. I am confident that Marc and Dietmar together will<br />

reach our ambitious goals for the DACH market.”<br />

Marc, who will be a familiar face to most of the firm’s DACH<br />

customers due to his long track-record in the industry since 1996,<br />

will take on the responsibility for the sales of Fairpoint’s brands<br />

Westin and Kinetic in Germany, Austria and Switzerland from<br />

August 1st.<br />

A passionate fisherman who lives with his family in northern<br />

Germany, Marc said: “I am very happy to become part of a great<br />

company. I see enormous growth potential in the future by<br />

bringing my sales experience to bear alongside an ambitious and<br />

fantastic team.”<br />

Meanwhile, Dietmar is one of the best-known anglers in the<br />

DACH region and has a strong social and traditional media<br />

following. This, combined with his vast knowledge of predator<br />

fishing and attention to detail, make him the ideal person within<br />

the marketing and product development team.<br />

Fairpoint COO Thomas Sanotra added: “I am very excited to be<br />

able to get a person like Dietmar in my team. His broad knowledge<br />

of our great industry, combined with his tireless drive to innovate<br />

in both marketing and product development, makes him a very<br />

‘rare’ talent.<br />

”I’m sure that this new set-up will bring speed, passion and<br />

innovation to the table and, through this, we will continue to thrill<br />

all of our loyal customers around the world.”<br />
