Duplo International CEO Bruno Picquet
Bruno Picquet, CEO at Duplo International, will leave the company in April.
Described as a ‘wonderful asset’ to the print finishing supplier, Mr Picquet is heading for ‘pastures new, outside of the industry’, in his home country of Belgium.
Mr Picquet oversees the operational running of Duplo International business. During his tenure, the company’s turnover has grown 20% and he leaves a legacy of a four year business plan, which started in 2015, and will complete a successful first year.
The decision revolves around a new work-life balance, one that has previously involved a regular weekly return commute from Belgium, plus other travelling.
Mr Picquet said, ‘It is truly one of the hardest decisions I have had to make. This company is unique. Engaged people, passionate and driven, all of whom have been a pleasure to work with. I leave Duplo International in a healthier place than when I joined, of which I am very proud, and the company is heading ‘up’ towards its milestone goal set out in our business plan.’
Duplo International chairman Robin Greenhalgh said, ‘Bruno has been a wonderful asset to our business for five and a half years. He has helped focus and shape us, and we are in an extremely healthy position to grow the business even further in the coming years. We thank him for his drive, focus and passion for Duplo.’
