Daimler Extends Renschler’s Contract Through 2013

Daimler AG has extended the contract of Andreas Renschler, head of the German corporation’s global truck-making business, for three years.

Daimler said earlier this month that Renschler’s contract will run through September 2013. It had been slated to expire in September 2010.

Renschler has run the truck business since 2004 and also is in charge of Daimler’s bus production.

Daimler AG is the parent company of Daimler Trucks North America, which makes Freightliner and Western Star trrucks.
