Mark Ost takes over as MD of ISN Europe

ISN Europe has appointed Mark Ost as MD, overseeing the established garage equipment and tools divisions.

James Boon, who has been interim MD since 2022, said: “I consider this appointment to be a landmark for ISN Europe, and should be seen by our employees, customers and indeed the industry as a whole as significant and compelling.”

Boon, who founded the original Hofmann Megaplan UK business in 2004, subsequently acquired by Florida-based ISN in 2017, will remain as an ambassador and advisor to the business.

ISN Europe consists of two divisions — ISN Garage Assist, supplying garage equipment to independents, main dealers and tyre chains, and ToolTruck, which distributes a range of tools and diagnostic products via a network of dealers.

Ost will report directly to the US CEO and board. CEO Mark Majeske said “I am excited to have Mark on board. We are confident his unique, combined experience with both the tools and equipment sectors will be exactly what we need to accelerate our overall success in Europe.”
