“I know I speak for the whole VIVESCIA executive team when I say how pleased we are to welcome Olivier to the Group. His extensive knowledge of our sector and his multicultural experience are invaluable. They will equip Olivier to take Malteurop, which recently celebrated its 60th anniversary, forward to the next stage in its development and overcome the challenges that face us today. He is working closely with all Malteurop’s teams to ensure our future site in Mexico, where we are building a new malt house and developing a local barley supply chain, comes on stream as planned in summer 2023. In addition, he is supporting projects to decarbonate our raw materials and production processes, while accelerating the innovation and development that will ensure our solutions are an even better fit for the needs of our brewing and distilling customers.”
