DAN-doors' owners want DAN-doors to grow even more in the coming years, and in this connection they have hired Jesper Aablad as the new CEO.

A solid foundation

Amdi Kjærgaard has stepped down as CEO of DAN-doors and has handed over the baton to Jesper Aablad, who has stepped in as the new CEO with a clear ambition to lead DAN-doors into a new era of growth and increased focus on sales and marketing.

DAN-doors' owner and Chairman of the Board, Erling Boller: "This planned change of CEO should be seen as part of our strategic plan. I would first like to thank Amdi Kjærgaard for his long and successful work for DAN-doors. Today, the company has a solid foundation for future development."

Erling Boller also elaborates on the choice of Jesper Aablad as the new CEO of DAN-doors: "We are facing a new strategy period and are also in the initial phase of a transformation of DAN-doors' business. The owners want DAN-doors to grow more in the coming years, and it is important that the new CEO plays a very active role. Jesper is a visionary and has some exciting insights and plans for the realization of the strategy. He is also a value-driven leader who shares the same principles of team culture that have characterized DAN-doors until now."

Jesper comes to DAN-doors with extensive experience from the manufacturing sector. In recent years, he has worked intensively with sales to project markets in both B2B and B2C, both nationally and internationally, and he also has extensive experience in the development, production, assembly and service of various industrial services. With this background, he steps into the role as CEO of DAN-doors with a good understanding of the Danish door manufacturer's customer segments and the challenges and opportunities in the industry:

"I look forward to building on the strong foundation that Amdi Simon Kjærgaard has laid and taking DAN-doors to new heights," says Jesper Aablad and continues: "My focus will be to strengthen our sales and marketing efforts to ensure that we are well positioned to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future, and we are already well on our way to opening new markets with products and solutions specifically developed for export. We have great expectations for the new strategic partnerships we are establishing, and I am proud to join a company that has such an uncompromising attitude to quality, as I can see is the case in DAN-doors. At the same time, I have met a strong team of passionate employees who always go the extra mile, and I cannot imagine a better starting point to continue our growth journey," says Jesper Aablad.

With the arrival of Jesper Aablad, DAN-doors is setting a clear direction for the future, where increased growth and market expansion will be in focus. Jesper will work closely with the existing team to further develop and implement strategies that create value for both the company and its customers.
