Management and Governance
We have a two-tier management structure: The Board of Directors and the Executive Board of the Franke Holding AG. The corporate strategy and goals are central responsibilities of the Board of Directors. Our Executive Board with the CEO on top is taking care of the daily operational management.
- Board of Directors
- Executive Board
Our Board of Directors is responsible for the overall management. That includes defining the corporate strategy and goals as well as supervising and controlling the Executive Board. Its six members have various non-transferable, irrevocable duties in accordance with the Swiss Code of Obligations. The Board has three standing internal committees: a Finance and Audit Committee, an Information Technology and a Human Resources Committee.
The Executive Board is steering the operational management of the Franke Group. The eight members manage the Group Functions Finance, Human Resources, Operations, Information Services as well as the three divisions Franke Home Solutions, Franke Foodservice Systems and Franke Coffee Systems. Under the CEO’s leadership, the Executive Board implements the strategic guidelines and resolutions of the Board of Directors to which they report.
