Harley-Davidson Execs to Discuss Company's Global Appeal

By Mark Scott

Buffalo, NY – Two top executives from Harley-Davidson will be in Buffalo later this week to talk about how their company competes in the global market place. The group, World Trade Center Buffalo Niagara, is holding its annual "World Trade Celebration" Thursday evening at Kleinhans Music Hall.

Harley-Davidson has retail stores in more than 60 countries with annual revenues topping five-point-three billion dollars. Jerry Wilke is vice president of customer relationships and motorcycle planning, who's been with the company since 1975. He'll be in Buffalo later this week with Steve Wasser, director of sales and market development in Asia, to talk about Harley-Davidson's global appeal.

WBFO's Mark Scott reached Wilke at the company's corporate headquarters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Click the "listen" icon above to hear the interview now or use your podcasting software to download it to your computer or iPod.
