Heimtextil announces leadership shakeup
Heimtextil has announced that Margit Herberth will assume the role of Director Heimtextil from September 2023, taking the reins from Meike Kern.
Herberth, previously Director of Marketing Consumer Goods and Multimedia & Data at Messe Frankfurt, will work in tandem with Bettina Bär, who has been responsible for the home textiles segment since September 2022.
