“We are glad to have found a new colleague who stands for innovation and internationality,” the two managing partners, Andreas Wagner and Heinz-Jürgen Meyer said in a statement.

“We’ve demonstrated continuous double-digit growth during 2018 and will continue to invest in the future of Rotpunkt Kitchens. Now, we want to move forward on this route with Sven Herden. We will get new ideas from him for our business and we hope to benefit from his former experience” they continued.

In the past, Mr Herden, was responsible for the UK market at Häcker Küchen as managing director of Hacker Own Brand Ltd, and he also had a leading position at his former employer as export sales manager. 

“I’m really looking forward to be part of a highly motivated team in this family-run business and want to help with my experience to drive the company further forward,” he said.
