Jan Christian Vestre has led Vestre through a period of rapid growth and pioneering projects ever since he took over as
CEO in 2012. Today, Jan Christian is starting a new role as a minister and more specifically as Norway’s new Minister of Trade and Industry, and this will inevitably involve some changes for Vestre. But change is nothing new for Vestre and, through several generational changes since 1947, we have continued to steer our ship according to our core values: design, quality, sustainability and social responsibility. We will continue to do this as we face exciting new times with, amongst other things, our new factory – The Plus, a ground-breaking Design Lab and new markets.
The whole of Team Vestre would like to thank Jan Christian Vestre for his inspiring and visionary leadership over the past ten years. We share his faith that each and every one of us can change the world. A little. Now our Captain is leaving this ship, to motivate and lead many more people along the right path. Godspeed!
