AEGEAN announced Michalis Kouveliotis as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
Dimitris Gerogiannis, who was the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for the past 20 years and also a founding officer of the company, will continue to support the company during its transition to the next generation of leadership, serving as an Advisor with oversight of the Technical Base and Training Center, the new development direction of the Group.
Kouveliotis has supported the company as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) since before its listing on the Athens Stock Exchange. From early 2025, as part of the transition preparation process, he has served as Deputy Chief Executive Officer (Deputy CEO), with responsibility for coordinating the company’s business divisions.
Eftichios Vassilakis, Chairman of AEGEAN, stated, “Dimitris Gerogiannis, together with Theodoros Vassilakis, shaped the quality and customer service culture, as well as the principles of fairness and collaboration within our company. Dimitris has the rare ability to combine technical expertise with human approach. For all of us, he is a co-founder of the company, and this will not change with the handover of the CEO position. After all, he will continue to support AEGEAN as it moves forward from its founding leadership team to the next generation of executives.”
“Michalis Kouveliotis, who is taking over as CEO, has already demonstrated his ability to support the company through both periods of growth and crisis. Over the past two years, as Deputy CEO, he has led the transition process, while his positive energy and drive have already left a strong mark on the organization,” Vassilakis added.
