Change in Kuoni Switzerland's communications
Following the sale of the European tour operator business to the Rewe Group/DER Touristik, the communications department, which had previously been shared by the Kuoni Group and Kuoni Switzerland, will be split up.
Peter Brun will continue as Chief Communications Officer of the global Kuoni Group. With the sale of the Swiss unit, he is thus ending his communications duties for Kuoni Switzerland with immediate effect after ten years. As of October 5, 2015, Marcel Schlatter will take over media relations for Kuoni Switzerland as Head of Communications.
Marcel Schlatter has worked as deputy communications officer and media spokesman for the Zug police since 2006 and for the Zug public prosecutor's office since 2008. The 32-year-old from Zurich completed an MAS in Communication Management at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts and a degree in Journalism and Organizational Communication at the ZHAW in Winterthur. Marcel Schlatter will take over as Head of Communications for Kuoni Switzerland from October 5, 2015.
In future, media professionals in Switzerland will have to differentiate between the activities of the two separate companies Kuoni Group on the one hand and Kuoni Switzerland on the other.
