In connection with the appointment of a new Group President, it has been proposed that Johan Nilsson will take over as Chairman of Ahlsell AB.
Sören Vestergaard-Poulsen, Chairman of the Board, states: With Claes Seldeby we continue to build with a very commercial and business-oriented leader with a strong track record. In his role as head of operations of Ahlsell's Swedish business, Claes has over an extended period of time demonstrated excellent leadership and developed the company in a positive direction. Thus, it feels natural that Claes assumes the role after Johan Nilsson who has steered the Ahlsell group very well during the past six years and now chooses to retire from the executive position as CEO. We look forward to supporting Claes in his work with the continued development of Ahlsell, both organically and through acquisitions.
Johan Nilsson, current CEO, comments: After 13 years with Ahlsell and six years as CEO and Group President it feels natural to pass the baton to Claes who has made an outstanding effort during the years he managed Ahlsell Sweden. Claes has cemented the company's market leading position whilst spurring on the digital development within the company. I have very much appreciated being a part of the journey in making our company a world-leading distributor with a strong sustainability focus. In consultation with CVC Capital Partners, I look forward to accede as the Chairman of the Ahlsell group in connection with my resignation, where I can continue to contribute to Ahlsell's continued growth and success.
Claes Seldeby, acceding CEO, states: I am delighted to assume the CEO position for the Ahlsell group and continue the positive development work that successfully permeates Ahlsell. Ahlsell has a strong corporate culture throughout the company in all markets and segments, and I am honored to lead Ahlsell's employees and continue this successful journey.
