Rolando Benedick takes over as Valora Chairman
Manor CEO Rolando Benedick will chair the newly formed board of directors of the kiosk operator Valora. He will take over the position from Beatrice Tschanz, who has been serving as interim chair since Fritz Ammann stepped down last November.
Rolando Benedick will chair the newly composed Board of Directors of kiosk operator Valora. This was announced by the Group on Wednesday evening. Benedick, head of the Manor Group, was appointed Chairman at the first meeting of the enlarged Board of Directors. Financier Adriano Agosti, who had previously engaged in a power struggle with the old Board of Directors, did not make it onto the Board (see). Agosti will, however, have been pleased with Benedick's election as Chairman: He had nominated him for the BoD. Also in Agosti's favor is Markus Fiechter, who also made it onto the board. However, despite Agosti's sympathies, Benedick and Fiechter were also nominated for election by the old BoD. Benedick takes over the chairmanship from Beatrice Tschanz, who has held the office on an interim basis since the resignation of Fritz Ammann last November. Ammann had resigned under pressure from Agosti's investor group.
