A generational change in KRONEN’s Management Board

Rudolf Hans Zillgith is retiring from the operational business of KRONEN GmbH, which marks the conclusion of the generational change in the company’s Management Board that has been ongoing since 2018. The well-established, long-standing Management Board will now continue to lead the company on its successful course.

According to Stephan Zillgith, Spokesman of the Board of KRONEN GmbH,

”the retirement of my father, Rudolf Hans Zillgith, from the company’s operational business concludes the generational change that we already initiated back in 2018. The members of the Management Board have been working together in this constellation on a strong foundation of trust for many years and will now continue to lead KRONEN GmbH consistently down this successful path.

On behalf of the entire Management Board and all employees, I would like to thank Rudolf Hans Zillgith for his extraordinary entrepreneurial commitment. His foresight, courage, and strong personal dedication have played a key role in shaping KRONEN GmbH over the past few decades and have helped it develop into an internationally successful enterprise. We will now continue to successfully shape the future of the company on this strong foundation.”
