THE LISTER PETTER NAME REMAINS Iconic U.K. engine builder 'continues to operate,' while outsourcing U.K. manufacturing to key component supplier

摘要

The former chief executive of venerable U.K. engine builder Lister Petter said the group continues to operate and to trade around the world from its headquarters in the United Arab Emirates. Speaking from Dubai, Bryan Draper, who maintains an unspecified role with the company (more details of the company's management structure are expected in the coming weeks), denied reports that Lister Petter has been renamed following the acquisition of its U.K.-based assembly plant by Birmingham, England-based engineering company EGL after Lister Petter had been placed in administration.
