Sunreef Yachts appoints business development director
Polish catamaran manufacturer Sunreef Yachts has appointed Gabriele Ferlazzo as the firm’s new business development director. In this role, Ferlazzo will be responsible for developing and managing the company’s worldwide dealer network to expand its presence in key markets.
Originally from Milan, Italy, Ferlazzo holds a law degree and began his career at a law firm before transitioning to the yachting sector.
Ferlazzo has more than 15 years of experience in the yachting industry, having held leadership positions at several major shipyards, including Azimut Yachts and — most recently — Zodiac Nautic. He has worked across Europe, the United States and Asia Pacific, both in sales roles and in overseeing business development.
In December 2024, Sunreef Yachts appointed Liza Kharoubi Echenique as its US executive director. Based in Miami, Florida, Kharoubi Echenique will manage operations in the US market, focusing on areas such as sales and strategic initiatives to strengthen the company’s presence in the region.
