By strengthening its management Frese, based in Slagelse, Denmark, embarks on an exciting new chapter of its growth journey, which in recent years has yielded an average growth of 10% per year.
“We are incredibly happy that Peter and Ulrich have chosen to contribute to Frese’s continued growth. We have great expectations for the future and are aware that increasing growth means we need experienced and competent people on our team. We have that now,” expresses CEO René Barington.
Ulrich Gammelgaard joins Frese from a position as Vice President of Finance and Performance Management at Velux. Ulrich is highly experienced in economy, IT and complex production and logistics supply chains.
“Frese is a very attractive company with a deep value chain. For example, we develop sustainable products, have complex logistics, and global sales in expanding markets. That makes for a lot of interesting tasks to focus on,” says Ulrich Gammelgaard about his appointment.
Peter Agneborn, formerly Divisional Sales & Marketing Director at IMI Hydronic Engineering, has many years of industry experience and will be responsible for Sales & Marketing.
Peter expresses his enthusiasm about joining Frese: "I look forward to leveraging my extensive experience in sales and marketing, particularly within this industry, to contribute to the further growth of a company renowned for its innovative, high-quality products. These products, in many cases, help reduce our partners’ CO2 emissions."
