Robert Bollinger: The Man Behind Mullen’s Push Into Commercial EVs
CEO Robert Bollinger has put his life’s work into developing electric trucks.
After receiving a degree in industrial and product design from Carnegie Mellon, Mr. Bollinger dedicated most of his professional career to John Masters Organics, an organic beauty company. He first met the founder, John Masters, in 1995, which eventually led to his promotion to COO in 2005. Following Masters’ departure from the company, Mr. Bollinger was essentially handed the reins. After growing sales by 25x, he decided to sell the company in 2013.
Mr. Bollinger then used the proceeds from this sale to help fund Bollinger Motors.
Bollinger and Mullen’s Partnership
Last September, Mullen announced that it had acquired a 60% controlling interest in Bollinger for $148.2 million in cash and stock. Mullen’s interest is “highly focused on the commercial aspect of the company,” said Mr. Bollinger. “[Michery] saw how wonderful the commercial direction was that we were going, and the far-reaching applications for it.”
With the purchase of Bollinger and the $105 million acquisition of Electric Last Mile Solution’s(OTCMKTS:ELMSQ) assets, Mullen is now able to capitalize on several areas of synergy.
