Zodiac

Zodiac adds horsepower to its Scandinavian sales

Mijdrecht, Netherlands based distributor Zodiac International has hired a news Sales Manager for its business in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark.

Perhaps best known as the man behind Swecomposite in Ă…kersberga, Sweden, and as a drag racer and parts and performance engineer, Kenneth Holmberg is Zodiac’s new “go to guy” for the region – a role to which he brings vast experience, knowledge and contacts.
Known to Zodiac International founder Ton Pels and his son and present CEO Vincent for many years from the Drag Race scene in Europe, Holmberg brings a rare level of insight and practical experience that Scandinavian dealers will be able to leverage in buying from a range of over 40,000 part numbers, with product available for most years and models of Harley - from vintage, restoration and Old School through to late model tourer, cruiser and Sportster as well as Victory and Indian parts, accessories and performance components.

Holmberg has been making and selling special parts for and to most of the bike builders and racers in the Nordic countries, elsewhere in Europe and worldwide for many years and still competes in drag racing. He is a winner of the Scandinavian Pro Twin Bike championship with his turbocharged Harley V-Rod and currently competes with a ProStock bike in the Nordic and FIM Europe championships; he has also made parts for Zodiac Racing’s Top Fuel Harley, that is ridden by Ronny Aasen (Norway).
“We have been talking about this collaboration for many years,” said Kenneth. “I really look forward to working with Zodiac and Vincent, as I have known them for many years. Swecomposite will remain as before with a new location in Norrtälje.” Kenneth can be reached at scandinavia@zodiac.nl.
