Consumer goods: Capri-Sun owner Hans-Peter Wild re-enters business at 85
The billionaire is once again involved in the company's day-to-day business following the dismissal of the company's CEO. The beverage manufacturer from Baden is facing several challenges.
Capri-Sun's owner, Hans-Peter Wild, has surprised the beverage industry by returning to the operational business at the age of 85. The anniversary of his marriage to his long-time partner, lawyer Christine Drage, celebrated in September, took place on the island of Capri with a three-day celebration and performances by star-geiger David Garrett.
With over 1.4 billion dollars in annual sales from its iconic aluminum drink pouches, sold in more than 100 countries, Capri-Sun has seen the departure of Chief Roland Weening. The company has not provided any further details on the reasons behind Weening's dismissal. However, it has assured that the company will continue to be led successfully by the existing management team and owner, Hans-Peter Wild. Wild will continue to serve as the chairman of the board.
