At the same time, Lindemann will also be removed from the executive management of the parent company Delta Galil Industries Ltd. retire. The company explained that the search for possible successor candidates has already begun.
Isaac Dabah, CEO of Delta Galil, paid tribute to the outgoing Schiesser boss. “I would like to thank Andreas for the contribution he has made to the company over the years,” he said in a statement. “Through his commitment, he has significantly developed the company and the brand. I wish Andreas all the best for his future endeavors.”
Lindemann led Schiesser through difficult times
Lindemann, who has led the traditional company since the summer of 2018, took stock of his time at Schiesser in view of his impending departure. “The past six and a half years have been extremely challenging for the Schiesser company but also for my management team and me due to the restrictions during the Covid pandemic and the consequences of the Russian attack on Ukraine,” he explained. “Despite weak consumer demand, distortions in the supply chains, cost increases and a large number of retail bankruptcies, we have managed to realign the Schiesser company organizationally, generate growth and significantly increase profitability.”
