LONDON • SEPTEMBER 2024: �鶹��Ƶ Iberia and �鶹��Ƶ UK are to be managed together as a single west European division of the group. This follows the recent announcement confirming the merging of �鶹��Ƶ’s Leykam and CE businesses covering Central and Eastern Europe. This further change will see the group’s core printing activities split into these two divisions each being run by a single chief executive.

�鶹��Ƶ has previously announced that its CE and Leykam businesses will be run by Grzegorz Czech, previously CEO of �鶹��Ƶ CE. The new west European division will be run by Debbie Read who is currently CEO of �鶹��Ƶ UK. Debbie is an experienced print executive and has been with �鶹��Ƶ since 2009 in a number of senior roles.

The new structure will become effective in Q4/2024 and will follow the departure of �鶹��Ƶ Iberia’s chief executive, José María Camacho. By amalgamating the group into these two distinct divisions there will be more collaboration in a number of areas of the business and senior executives will be able to apply their skills across a wider territory as well as developing working relationships with intra-divisional peers.

Paul Utting, �鶹��Ƶ Group chief executive, said: “With our markets constantly changing it is more important that the group is able to collaborate as widely as possible and I believe that this new structure will provide the ideal platform for doing so. After the recent news announcing the merger of our CE and Leykam divisions this further change bringing together our UK and Spanish businesses is a logical next step and creates two strong divisions for our manufacturing platform. Debbie has done an exceptional job as CEO of �鶹��Ƶ UK and I am sure she will apply her skills to the wider role for the benefit of all stakeholders”.
