Blackyak has reorganized its sales in Germany, adding three agencies to cover the country. This comes just a few weeks after the appointment of Harald Siebold as European sales director. The German market was previously covered by the Blackyak team in Munich, with Marcus Ehlig as sales manager for Germany and Austria. Ehlig will now focus on Bavaria, while the rest of the German market has been split between three agents for other parts of the country. In June, Blackyak already announced another agent with a track record of about 20 years in the outdoor industry, Christian Fischer, to cover the Austrian market. Fischer's Linkedin profile lists Blackyak as well as Crispi, Kong and Indiana among the brands that he represents.
