Danish Crown: New CEO must lead Sokołów forward

After working in various senior positions in global companies such as Danone and SC Johnson, and having started his career at a P&G distributor, Przemysław Gostkiewicz was appointed to the position of CEO at Bakoma in 2022, based in Warsaw. His extensive professional background spans both domestic and international markets, making him an experienced leader in the world of trading.

"I am happy to welcome Przemysław to the Danish Crown family and to Sokołów, and I am convinced that he will create a great future for Sokołów and for all our stakeholders", says Jais Valeur, CEO, Danish Crown.

Przemysław Gostkiewicz is looking forward to taking over the reins at Sokołów and working with Danish Crown.

"I am very excited to join the Danish Crown team and take the lead of one of the largest Polish companies with the power brand Sokołów, created by a strong team and leaders. I am confident that together we will be able to take it to the next level of growth, build on the solid business, culture and management foundations and explore the possibilities of the future", says Przemysław Gostkiewicz.

The change of CEO in Sokołów also marks the end of an era in which current CEO Bogusław Miszczuk has led the company for the past 22 years. He started his career 50 years ago as an apprentice and as he always strived to be the best, he ended up at the very top of the company. Under his leadership, the company has grown into a strong food company.

"I have come to appreciate my many conversations with Bogdan, who is reflective and very experienced. As I said to him at his 50th anniversary; a salute to his great contribution to the company and I wish him all the best in his new life", says Jais Valeur.

Bogusław Miszczuk has his last day at the company at the end of October.
