Hawesko Holding SE: Change of management at Wein & Vinos

Hamburg, 05 January 2023. After six years at the helm of Wein & Vinos GmbH (Vinos), managing director Christopher Maaß is leaving the company by best mutual agreement on 30 June 2023.

During this time, Maaß has significantly advanced the development of the specialist retailer for Spanish wine into one of the leading e-commerce and multichannel companies. In a dynamic market, he has thus laid the foundation for the continuation of Vinos’ profitable growth course.

“We would like to express our sincere thanks to Christopher Maaß for his excellent leadership over the past years, during which he has shaped a competent and capable team with which we will now shape the future of Wein & Vinos,” says Alexander Borwitzky, member of the Board of Management of Hawesko Holding SE. “We wish Mr Maaß all the very best for his professional and private future.”

A decision on a successor for Christopher Maaß will be made in the next few months. Until then, Wein & Vinos will be represented by Moritz Kottenhagen, commercial director, and the authorised signatories Alexander Wendt (purchasing) and Matthias Rinklak (logistics).
