Claus-Dietrich Lahrs and Gil Steyaert will stand for election at this year's Annual General Meeting of Mister Spex SE on June 7th in Berlin, succeeding the previous Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Peter Williams, and Stuart Paterson, who are both not seeking re-election. Alongside Nicole Srock.Stanley, Birgit Kretschmer, Pietro Luigi Longo, and Nicola Brandolese, four members of the seven-member Supervisory Board are also standing for re-election. Additionally, Tobias Krauss has been already elected until 2026.

"We would like to thank Peter Williams and Stuart Paterson for their unwavering dedication, expertise and vision in advising the management of Mister Spex. Their invaluable contribution and constructive collaborations over the past years have been truly commendable”, explains Dirk Graber, CEO of Mister Spex. "With Claus-Dietrich Lahrs and Gil Steyaert, we have found two candidates for the Supervisory Board who will bring remarkable expertise in the retail and fashion markets. We trust that the Annual General Meeting will endorse the election proposals put forth by Supervisory Board, and we will be able to welcome both candidates to Mister Spex in June."

Peter Williams, Chairman of the Supervisory Board at Mister Spex, underscores: "After over a decade as Chairman at Mister Spex, during which the company has established itself as a leading omnichannel optician in Europe, I believe it is time for me to retire from the board. It has been a highlight of my career to work with the Mister Spex team. With their significant fashion retail experience, I am confident that Claus-Dietrich and Gil will bring valuable new perspectives to the Supervisory Board."
