Migros reconstruction: Mario Irminger's radical cure has given the orange giant an identity crisis

Migros CEO Mario Irminger will leave the company before its planned restructuring is completed. The restructuring involves merging 11 cooperatives into one group cooperative, a move Irminger describes as a "historical turning point". Irminger, who has been in the role for three years, will depart after a vote on the restructuring in summer 2027, along with Peter Diethelm, head of Supermarkt AG. Irminger says the company is in a "position of strength" and that it is the right time for him to step down.
