Dear esteemed partners,
As I write this message, I am filled with mixed emotions. My tenure as the
Managing Director of GF Piping Systems BeLux has been nothing short of extraordinary, and as I prepare to embark on my next venture, I am deeply grateful for the memories and experiences we have shared.
It is with mixed feelings that I announce my departure from GF Piping Systems BeLux to take on a new responsibility within the GF family.
As the Managing Director, I will head a new joint venture, GF Corys, in Dubai. This transition marks not just a new chapter in my professional journey but also represents our brand's continuous commitment to growth, innovation, and excellence on a global scale.
I owe a tremendous amount of gratitude to all of you and my colleagues and family.
Your unwavering confidence in the GF brand has driven us to new heights.
As we look to the future, GF has an exhilarating journey ahead.
With constant innovation, we aim to remain at the fore-front of the piping systems industry, and I am confident that you will continue to witness this in the years to come.
The success of both me and GF BeLux has been largely due to each of you -your
open-mindedness, your candid sharing of challenges, and your collaboration with us on the solutions. The achievements we celebrate today are a testament to our collective efforts and mutual trust.
GF has been "becoming better every day since 1802," a mantra that we've held dear and one that I will carry with me always. People in Belgium & Luxembourg will always occupy a special place in my heart.
Every successful project with GF BeLux, past and future, will serve as evidence of the remarkable journey we've embarked upon together.
As of today, Frederik Koninckx will take as the Managing Director Ad Interim until a final successor has been appointed.
I am confident that the competent GF BeLux team will cater to all your needs with the same commitment and expertise you've come to expect.
In closing, I look back with fondness and forward with excitement, and I remain ever grateful for the shared moments and successes.
May our paths cross again, and may we continue to flourish together.
