Espersen has hired Morten Hansen as its new Managing Director for the company's Vietnam facility, based in Ho Chi Minh City to oversee and lead the whole production process and the team.
The new Managing Director has experience in the nutrition sector dealing with intercultural management. Before, Hansen occupied different roles in companies such as BIOS Ambulance Services Denmark and GC Rieber Compact AS.
Regarding this announcement, he published in his LinkedIn profile: "I have been deeply touched by the warm and generous welcome from my new colleagues at Espersen, and I am eager to contribute to our collective efforts to advance Espersen's legacy and elevate the company to new heights."
"I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Espersen CEO Klaus Beyer Nielsen, Senior Vice President, Production Peter Mylius Bruun, and HR Director Michael W. Andersen for this incredible opportunity," he added.
A couple of weeks ago, the leading global whitefish processing company changed its CEO after 37 years. Klaus B. Nielsen announced his retirement after being nearly 25 years the CEO of the Danish seafood company.
Espersen is a world leader in processing frozen fish blocks, frozen fillets, special cuts, and breaded and deluxe puff pastry fish products, with modern production plants and sales offices in Denmark, France, Germany, Lithuania, Poland, and the UK. The Vietnam headquarter was founded in 2010 and has 1000 employees.
