Fabio Di Giammarco has been appointed the new CEO of Italy-based bakery group Bauli.
The company announced the hiring of the former Puratos executive in a brief post on LinkedIn.
“We’d like to officially welcome Fabio Di Giammarco as Bauli Group’s CEO. Fabio has a solid international experience in the food and beverage industry and will lead our company in this important new phase of accelerating Bauli’s growth in Italy and on foreign markets.”
Just Food approached Bauli to ask why the change was necessary and whether was it initiated by the former CEO, Stefano Zancan or the company.
Di Giammarco has about 13 years of experience working in the food and drinks industry. He spent the previous six years as president of bakery-ingredients firm Puratos’ business in Latin America and the Caribbean.
His previous positions included global vice president and VP and managing director of Brazil for Bacardi between 2012 and 2017, and marketing VP of Latin America for SABMiller’s beer and soft drinks businesses.
