Fred Boere & Arno Rodenburg
Until 2024, Fred and Arno led the Gpi Group as managing directors. Today, they remain non-executive board members.
Fred Boere started 25 years ago as a cooperating foreman at Gpi. At that time he started as a sixth employee and welded, built and supervised activities in the production and also spent 1 to 2 half days in the office to arrange projects and to design and draw. In the course of time, this changed and he became manager, technical director and finally general manager. Since 2009 Fred Boere, as CEO, is co-owner and shareholder within Gpi.
Arno Rodenburg is co-owner and shareholder within Gpi since 2012. He works for over twenty years at Gpi and grew from welder to foreman/workshop manager, production manager and operational technical director. In 2012 Arno Rodenburg became co-owner and shareholder as COO.
