Affichage Holding: Ivan Schultheiss to be new managing director of APG Allgemeine Plakatgesellschaft
In connection with the increasingly international nature of the Affichage Group’s business activities, the Board of Directors has taken various personnel decisions, including the appointment of Ivan Schultheiss as the new managing director of Allgemeine Plakatgesellschaft APG, effective 1 January 2009. Schultheiss will thus be taking over the position as head of the most important Affichage Group company from Christian Kauter, who will continue as Chief of the Switzerland business segment and as CEO and Delegate of Affichage Holding.
APG Allgemeine Plakatgesellschaft has a new managing director. As from 1 January 2009, Ivan Schultheiss will be heading up the company that generates by far the highest turnover among Affichage Holding S.A.’s group companies. Schultheiss has been head of sales at APG since 2004. During this time, he has played a key role in driving forward the company’s customer focus and has thus made a substantial contribution towards strengthening APG as market leader. Before joining APG, he had qualified as a federally certified advertising manager and held a number of responsible positions, including that of advertising director at «Die Weltwoche»/Jean-Frey AG, Publipresse and Publicitas, the Sulzer, Suter advertising agency and Fust AG. Affichage Holding S.A. is delighted that such a skilled, innovative and responsible media professional as Ivan Schultheiss is to head up APG.
Christian Kauter is to remain chief of the Switzerland business segment and will retain his functions as CEO and Delegate of Affichage Holding S.A., focusing more on strategic tasks.
The Affichage Group is confident that this personnel decision will provide a strong foundation for continuing success in a highly competitive and challenging operating environment.
