Regulated information -November
7th 2024 - 08:00
On its last meeting, the board of directors of
Campine elected Dina Brughmans as new chair to succeed Patrick De
Groote, who retires at the end of this year.
Dina Brughmans joined the board of Campine as an
independent non-executive director in 2018 and has been active as
well in the audit committee as in Campine’s remuneration committee.
“I am delighted to have been elected as chair of Campine and am
fully engaged to nurture further growth and prosperity of this
beautiful company, its employees and all its stakeholders. Campine
is a perfect example of circular economy that is so critical for
the future generations” says Mrs Brughmans about her appointment as
chair of the board of Campine.
The nomination will be effective 1/1/2025, as Mr
De Groote expressed his will to retire from the board and
consequently steps down on 31/12/2024. Mr De Groote has been on the
board of Campine for 17 years and was one of the main driving
forces to transform the company into what it became today. He was
elected chairman of the board in 2016 and was instrumental in
implementing a new business plan, amongst others including a change
in management leadership. His contribution to the success of
Campine is numerous and the list of achievements too long to
highlight. During his term as chairman, Campine knew a period of
growth and prosperity. Mr F.-W. Hempel, representing the majority
shareholder, says “We are grateful to Mr De Groote for his
commitment and the achievements Campine made during his Presidency.
Mr De Groote was a great help, and we wish him good luck and good
health for the future”.
“My journey as non-executive director and
chairman of Campine has been exciting and rich in experiences” says
Mr De Groote “I am proud of what we achieved, but I want to stress
that it is an accomplishment from a whole team including the board,
the management and by extension all the employees of the group. A
special word of thanks goes to the main shareholder for his
everlasting support and trust along the road. Finally, the
encouragement of my family was an enduring help during this
journey. Campine is a great company with still lots of potential in
a world which evolves ever more in the direction of sustainability.
Best wishes to all for a safe future.” he concludes.
Furthermore, the board of directors of Campine
will propose to the general assembly in May 2025 to elect Mr
Léonard Hempel as new board member. Mr Léonard Hempel, grandson of
Mr F.-W. Hempel has been joining the board meetings as an
apprentice since the beginning of 2023. The entrance of a next
generation confirms the long term belief and interest in Campine
from the majority shareholder, the F.-W. Hempel Family
Foundation.
