Dear colleagues,

Today is my last day at Ashcroft. I would like to thank all of you for the wonderful collaboration and the many unforgettable moments we have experienced together. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with so many talented and dedicated people.

I would like to thank my direct employees in the supply chain and our suppliers in particular. Without your hard work and dedication, we would never have achieved the successes we have. I am thrilled to be part of such a great team.

As a farewell gift, I would like to name three significant examples of our joint successes. We have managed to …

1. Achieve the standardization of purchasing and logistics processes in the European national companies.
2. Successfully implement the realignment and restructuring of purchasing, production planning, and logistics.
3. Achieve the improvement of internal communication.

I am proud of what we have achieved together, and I am confident that you will all continue to do a great job. I wish you all the best for the future and look forward to staying in touch.

Best regards, Joachim 🤝👋🏼👨‍💼
