Monte Carlo Yachts: Termination of Carla Demaria as Chairperson

The shareholders' meeting of Monte Carlo Yachts S.p.A. held on 21 November 2018 has terminated the mandate of Mrs Carla Demaria as Chairperson and member of the Board of Directors of the company.

It has appointed Mr Christophe Caudrelier, Groupe Beneteau CFO and member of its Management Board, as President of Monte Carlo Yachts. The management team led by Fabrizio Iarrera, with the support of Attilio Bruzzese, has been confirmed and benefits from the full trust of the controlling shareholder.

Since the creation of this subsidiary in 2008, Groupe Beneteau has invested over 80 million euros in the development of Monte Carlo Yachts in Monfalcone, Italy. The financial investment was combined with the continuous support of the Group to the Italian team, allowing them to benefit from the industrial know-how and worldwide distribution networks of Groupe Beneteau.

Monte Carlo Yachts will launch three new models during this season 2018-19, as announced at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September.
