ABR Staff Writer Published 16 June 2009

GM' global purchasing group Vice President, Bo Andersson has decided to leave the Detroit-based bankrupt automaker. He was responsible for maintaining the flow of parts to GM plants through the company's financial difficulties.

Bo Andersson joined GM in 1987 as a Manager at SAAB AB located in Sweden. He also held the position of GM Europe Vice President of Purchasing. Bo was appointed Vice President, Global Purchasing and Supply Chain in December 2001, and was appointed the Group Vice President in 2007.
