El Cosfibel Group has announced the appointment of Marie Sermadiras as the new executive director of all its operating subsidiaries, since January 3, 2022.
Marie Sermadiras, 32, had joined Cosfibel in May 2021, as Executive Vice President, to prepare for her transition to full operational leadership.
He will report to his predecessor, the CEO of the group, Alain Chevassus, who founded Cosfibel in 2001 and has been the company's main shareholder ever since.
In 2021, the Cosfibel group achieved a turnover close to 85 million dollars, slightly above the results of 2019, strengthening its market share and preserving its profitability. The group is looking forward to a strong 2022 with the ambitious goal of reaching the US $ 100 million billing milestone, with a strong focus on high value-added markets such as cosmetics, wines and spirits, and gourmet food.
Marie Sermadiras' primary mission will be to build the path for profitable and sustainable growth, structuring Cosfibel to become a mid-cap player in its market. This growth will depend mainly on double-digit organic growth, supported by external acquisitions that will depend on the opportunities created in complementary market niches.
Marie Sermadiras will have the support of two key historical leaders of the organization, who will continue to be part of the Executive Committee of the company: Stanislas Peronet, Deputy General Manager, who has recently been entrusted with a new strategic mission of leading all the group's innovation and sustainability issues; Y Natalie Spasenic, Corporate CFO in charge of finance, management control and administration.
