On December 2, 2015, Acer announced the change of the head of the Russian representative office of the computer equipment manufacturer. Personnel changes may be associated with optimization against the background of the company's declining financial results at the global level.

He will replace Denis Kutnikov, who led the Russian office of the vendor since September 2011. Kutnikov will leave Acer, his new place of work is unknown.

"We are grateful to Denis for his contribution to the development of Acer's business in Russia and the 16 years he has devoted to the company," said Grigory Nizovsky, vice president of Acer in the REET region (unites Russia, Turkey and other countries of Eastern Europe, Central Asia and Transcaucasia).

According to him, the successful experience of Dmitry Kravchenko in developed markets will help Acer in Russia. The new CEO is tasked with implementing a strategy aimed at Acer taking a dominant position in the Russian personal computer market.

The head of Lenovo in Russia, the CIS and Eastern Europe, Gleb Mishin, who previously worked at Acer for about ten years, believes that the change in the company's leadership in Russia may be associated with its internal optimization due to the manufacturer's falling revenues.^[1]

as I know, Acer had big cuts in Poland, so Dmitry Kravchenko was transferred to Russia," Mishin said.
