Morgenrot appoints Carl Plath as new MD

Appointment: Carl Plath

Wine and beer importer, the Morgenrot Group, has appointed Carl Plath as its new managing director after the sad death of the much loved and respected Ray Flynn last month.

Plath, the son of Morgenrot founder Rudi, started working for the company in 1997 after completing his finance and accounting degree. He was appointed acting MD in March.

He said: “It’s a real honour to be made MD and I am excited to have the opportunity to carry on the work of two great men who have taught me so much - my father and Ray Flynn.

“It has been a difficult last few months but I am very proud of the way our team has pulled together and with their continued hard work and dedication, I am confident that as a company we will continue to grow and gain strength.”
