OeTTINGER Brewery: Welcome Gino Biondi!
News General news
In the course of 2022, we have made great progress in streamlining our OeTTINGER brewery and our product range, as well as in positioning ourselves as a sustainable beverage producer. Now we are also recruiting new staff to focus on strategic topics.
Pia Kollmar, our managing principal shareholder, will take over the chairmanship of the advisory board of OeTTINGER Brauerei GmbH in the coming weeks. She will be succeeded on the management board by the internationally experienced manager Gino Biondi.
"We have mastered the biggest hurdle of our transformation process at OeTTINGER: the handover of the tradition-rich Gotha site with the continued employment of all employees has been successful," summarises brewery boss Pia Kollmar. "In the near future, however, we not only want to quickly implement further restructuring measures - more efficient plant utilisation, strengthening the core range, new distribution options. We also need to work on the big, overarching issues: Cost explosion, price adjustments, digitalisation, sustainability, social responsibility. I want to devote all my energy to that."
Gino Biondi has been in charge of technology, finance, purchasing, IT and human resources since the end of December 2022. The mechanical engineer with an MBA from Paris and Hartford looks back on numerous successful years in the management of companies such as John Deere and Deutz. Peter Böck will continue to be responsible for sales and marketing in the OeTTINGER management.
