OEM names new North American sales manager
Husqvarna Motorcycles has named Blaine Schuttler as its new North American sales manager. Schuttler most recently was Area Manager for Western Canada and has been with Husqvarna’s ownership group for more than 10 years.
“This is an incredible opportunity,” Schuttler said. “I am looking forward to working with the iconic Husqvarna brand. As a rider and enthusiast Husqvarna influenced me from a young age and I can’t wait to see it back where it belongs… at the top!”
“In the short time that Husqvarna has been under the new ownership we have already overachieved on many fronts. One of the key focus points in the coming year will be to continued development of our dealer network throughout the U.S. and Canada to better serve and expand our customer base. We have already grown our dealer network in the past 10 months by 80 percent!”
Good to read NAMSM Blaine Schuttler’s enthusiasm for Husqvarna bikes. Husky’s name faced a lot of head winds over the last 20 plus years. Having said that, it is refreshing to see an old European bike name like the Husky fighting back on firm footing. Let the dirt fly. Congrats to Blaine Schuttlers
