Bodo Möller Chemie welcomes Alex Matosas as Managing Director in Morocco New opportunities for growth in North Africa

Alex Matosas has been Managing Director of Bodo Möller Chemie Morocco since October, overseeing local growth and further expanding the company’s position as a solutions provider in the region. At the heart of this mission is a comprehensive specialty chemicals portfolio paired with technical expertise, designed to help clients with their individual requirements.

As the former Managing Director of Bodo Möller Chemie Spain and Portugal, Alex Matosas brings extensive international experience and expertise to his new role. He is also able to draw on his time as Business Manager at Henkel in Morocco. His five-year tenure there gave him firsthand knowledge of Moroccan business practices, client requirements, and local market structures. Given his deep understanding of the North African market and his strategic business development experience, he is well positioned to drive Bodo Möller Chemie’s growth in Morocco, a key market in the group’s international expansion plans. Established in 2017, the Casablanca branch office serves as the base for local operations. The office will act as the launch point for further expansion in the Maghreb and select sub-Saharan markets. “Alex Matosas combines local market insight with experience in setting up and managing business operations across borders,” states Frank Haug, CEO of the Bodo Möller Chemie Group. “This combination is highly valuable for our activities in Morocco and provides a foundation for leveraging the group’s international expertise on behalf of our clients there.”

In his new role, Matosas is focusing on strategically positioning Bodo Möller Chemie as a reliable partner for specialty chemicals, material selection, and technical support. He is also driving targeted expansion of sustainable business activities in Morocco, prioritizing the automotive, coating additives, aerospace, and electronics industries. “I’m excited to take on these responsibilities. First and foremost, I plan to analyze customer needs on the ground, and build and consolidate client and partner relationships,” concludes Matosas. Clients will benefit from closer ties to Bodo Möller Chemie’s global network, its extensive specialty chemicals portfolio, and its technical expertise and solutions know-how.
