On behalf of the Group and the Board, I would like to thank Magda for her contribution to Eurowag over the past three years. She has played an important role at a transformational time for the Group and her knowledge and expertise has been invaluable. Her many achievements include leading us through the IPO and recent refinancing, and further building Eurowag's strong track record of delivering strategically important partnerships and acquisitions. We wish her all the best in her future endeavours."
