Patrick Oosterveld joins Ebusco as Sales Director

Patrick Oosterveld, new Sales Director for Ebusco, comments: “I truly believe that we all have to do our bit for a better future. That is why I am looking forward to accelerating the transition to electric transport together with Ebusco’s customers. In addition to electric buses with their low TCO for operators, Ebusco has invested early on in the development of charging systems, energy storage and maintenance services. In this way, we can unburden customers and completely remove the barriers to switching.”

“With Patrick, we are gaining an experienced force that knows the European market well,” says Peter Bijvelds. “We are looking forward to further grow under Patrick’s leadership, among others in the German market which is of enormous importance to us.”
