AS of 1 April, Herman and Age Mulder assumed the management of Rinos as managing directors. They represent the fifth generation to join as shareholders of the family business, which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year.

Milco Visscher will start as commercial director on 1 May. The current managing director, Peter Kuipers, will oversee the transition and step down on 31 July.

Herman and Age Mulder have been actively involved in Rinos for several years as financial director and operations director, respectively. Before that, they gained valuable experience at other companies. Now, they’re taking the next step by jointly assuming the role of managing director.

‘We’d like to thank Peter for his dedication over the past years and for guiding the transition in the coming months. We’re committed to keeping Rinos a true family business, continuing the tradition of craftsmanship and innovation. With Milco joining the management team, we’re well-positioned to build on our future,’ says Herman Mulder.

Age Mulder adds: ‘We’ve been working towards this moment for some time. I’m proud that we, as the fifth generation, are taking over the leadership. Our focus is on strengthening our market position while staying true to the values that have made Rinos a success.’

Milco Visscher brings more than 25 years of sales and marketing experience in the carpet industry. He adds a wealth of commercial knowledge and expertise to Rinos. ‘I look forward to working with Herman and Age, as well as the rest of the team, to build a strong future for Rinos,’ says Milco Visscher.

Peter Kuipers, who’s served as managing director since 2020, is overseeing the transition. ‘I am handing over my responsibilities to the new leadership with confidence. It is great to see how the next generation is taking Rinos forward with enthusiasm and vision. I am also pleased that Milco will be leading the commercial team with his extensive experience.’
