Textile CAD/CAM company Lectra has appointed Jean-Patrice Gros as its director of the Middle East and North Africa region, which includes Turkey. A 30-year Lectra employee, Mr Gros has been successively responsible for the International Advanced Technology Center in Bordeaux, France, head of sales in Canada and director of the Maghreb region.

"Appointing Jean-Patrice Gros at the head of this region, with Turkey at the forefront, demonstrates our commitment in supporting this high-potential area,” said Lectra CEO Daniel Harari. “Turkey has been a major partner of many European fashion brands for several decades and has recently benefited from investments in the automotive sector. It is a flagship country for Lectra.”

He said Lectra planned soon to introduce its PLM offer for fashion and its new automotive-leather cutting solutions to Turkey and other Mediterranean countries
