Changes at ALSO Benelux: Strengthening the organization from within

Based on ALSO’s MORE strategy, the company has been gaining market shares in the Supply business model in the Netherlands. As CCO for the Netherlands and Belgium, Bas Janssen not only developed the market in both countries, but at the same time successfully integrated new acquisitions into the organization. In the future he will focus on the Belgian market. Gustavo Möller-Hergt, CEO of ALSO Holding (SIX: ALSN): “The main aim is to consolidate the market in which ALSO does not have a dominant market share and to expand our reach where ALSO does have a leading market position. Having grown our business successfully in the Netherlands, we are now consolidating and enhancing this position and at the same time growing the Belgian market. Bas knows the channel extremely well and has the experience and knowledge to take the Belgian company to the next level.”

Marc Nijhof has been Managing Director of ALSO International BV and SVP Center of Competence Printing Consumable. He was responsible for the digitalization and further internationalization of ALSO’s printing consumable business. While keeping this role, he will take over as CCO of the Dutch company, too. Möller-Hergt: “Marc’s expertise in developing mature markets and his ability to drive operational excellence make him the right person to continue the successful expansion of the Dutch market.”
