The reason for the appointment of Van Leeuwen is the decision of André and Klaas van der Hout to, after nineteen years of management, focus on new business opportunities. However, this does not mean that André and Klaas turn their backs at the DAEL Group. Far from it, as the brothers will remain closely involved with the DAEL Group and its subsidiaries as both owners and shareholders. ,,DAEL has not only become our company, but has also become part of our identity and is therefore inextricably linked to us. With this decision, we are able to put our focus on growth opportunities."

Van Leeuwen is excited to pick up the baton as the new managing director of DAEL Group. ,,I have spoken with a lot of people at DAEL in recent years and what strikes me is the enormous passion with which they work," says Van Leeuwen. ,, DAEL is a wonderful company with a strong brand name and solid reputation. There is a clear long-term vision and it is up to me to build on what has been achieved, to achieve further growth and to continue to innovate. ”
