THE board of Ohorongo Cement has announced changes in the company’s senior management structure.
Uwe Müller, who has acted as General Manager of Technique at Ohorongo Cement, will take up a senior position in the Schwenk Group in Munich, Germany, next month.
The board unanimously elected Hans-Wilhelm Schütte (previously General Manager of Finance) as Managing Director of the entire operation.
Over the last year and a half Müller has been instrumental in doing the groundwork and bringing the N$2, billion Ohorongo Cement plant north of Otavi to the current construction phase.
The CEO of the Schwenk Group and Chairman of Ohorongo Cement, Gerhard Hirth, said: ‘Ohorongo Cement would like to pay recognition to Mr Müller for his dedication, hard work and commitment, which certainly made a huge contribution in the process of realising our dream of building Namibia’s own cement plant. We wish him all the success in his endeavour as a senior manager in Munich, and we take comfort in knowing that his expertise will always be available to us as he is not only a member of the Schwenk but the Ohorongo family as well.’
