Crown Photo Systems Deutschland GmbH Announces Leadership Transition and Company Renaming

June 28, 2024 

Crown Photo Systems Deutschland GmbH, a leading provider in the photo systems industry, today announced a significant leadership transition. Effective July 1, 2024, Joachim Klemenz will step down as CEO and previous shareholder of the company. This decision comes as Joachim reaches the age where he is entitled to enjoy his well-earned pension.

Joachim Klemenz has been a cornerstone of Crown Photo Systems, providing visionary leadership and unwavering commitment. While he will be stepping back from his executive role, the company is pleased to announce that Joachim will continue to lend his expertise as an advisor. His deep industry knowledge and experience will be instrumental in guiding the company’s future direction.

In conjunction with this transition, the company will undergo a rebranding. Starting July 1, 2024, Crown Photo Systems will be renamed GRETAGX GmbH. This new name reflects our dedication to innovation and our readiness to embrace the future while honoring the legacy built under Joachim’s leadership.

We are also thrilled to announce the appointment of Willi Muench and Ralf Plag as the new combined CEOs of GRETAGX GmbH. Both Willi and Ralf bring a wealth of experience and leadership to their roles, and their joint leadership is expected to propel the company to new heights. We extend our best wishes to them as they take on their new responsibilities.

“We are grateful for Joachim Klemenz’s remarkable contributions to the company and are excited about the future with our new leadership team,” said a spokesperson for the Board of Directors. “We wish Joachim all the best in his retirement and new advisory role, and we are confident that Willi and Ralf will lead GRETAGX GmbH to continued success.”
