LUXURY goods business Moet Hennessy has unveiled a new boss for its Glenmorangie division, writes Scott Wright.
The Paris-headquartered company has announced that Thomas Moradpour, currently international marketing director at Hennessy, is to succeed Marc Hoellinger in the role. Before taking on his post at Hennessy, Mr Moradpour held marketing and leadership roles at Carlsberg, PepsiCo and L’Oreal.
Mr Hoellinger has led The Glenmorangie Company, which as well as its eponymous malt produces Ardbeg Islay whisky, for the last five years. He is moving to a new role with Moet Hennessy, the wines and spirits division of LVMH, as international director of Champagne Houses Moet & Chandon and Dom Perignon.
Philippe Schaus, CEO of Moët Hennessy, said: “I am delighted to see Marc appointed to a new key role for two of our most famous brands, Moët & Chandon and Dom Pérignon, and Thomas to succeed him as president and CEO of The Glenmorangie Company. These two talented individuals have much to offer the Moët Hennessy portfolio and business strategy. With significant investments over the coming years, The Glenmorangie Company is committed to meeting increasing consumer demand for its wonderful whiskies.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
