Christiaan Prins to succeed Gaby Tschofen as VP Corporate Communications of Barry Callebaut

Since August 2016, the Dutch national Prins is a member of Gaby Tschofen’s team.

Prins joined Barry Callebaut from Unilever where he served on their European External Affairs team in Brussels from 2008 to 2016, initially as Deputy Head, then as Head of European External Affairs. From 2002 to 2008, he worked as Policy Advisor to a member of the European Parliament in Brussels.

Gaby Tschofen will remain a part of the Barry Callebaut family as she will again organize the Chocovision stakeholder conference from 11 to 13 June 2020 in Davos and then take on a part-time role as Head of Diversity & Inclusion

Antoine de Saint-Affrique, CEO of Barry Callebaut Group, explains: "I’d like to thank Gaby warmly for her many years of outstanding service to Barry Callebaut and to me personally. Starting in 2001, Gaby has built and shaped the Corporate Communications function into a professional, high-performing team from which we have been able to select her successor. I would like to congratulate Christiaan on his promotion to VP Corporate Communications. I am looking forward to working with him even more closely as from February. I wish both colleagues, Gaby and Christiaan, the best for their future.“
