Group Renault has announced Australia and New Zealand will be part of a newly formed region, ‘Africa, Middle-East, India and Pacific’ effective immediately.

“This is a crucial moment for Group Renault as we strengthen the brand’s regional offices and grow the presence of Renault in both Australia and New Zealand,” says Renault Australia managing director Anouk Poelmann.

Poelmann will oversee responsibilities for Renault New Zealand as part of the new regional directive, effective July 1.

“The new regional focus is evidence of Group Renault’s commitment to ensure Renault is the number one French brand in Australia and New Zealand and I am excited to be leading two strong organisations as we embark on the journey to challenge the status quo in a rapidly evolving automotive environment.”

The new region has over 100 countries in Africa, Asia and Oceania and has 56% of the world’s population with 4.3 billion people.
