German seafood chain Nordsee chose former CinemaxX Managing Director Carsten Horn as CEO of the company, effective Feb. 17.

Horn has more than 25 years of experience in companies such as Max Bahr, Blume 2000 and Tchibo.

He replaces Robert Jung, who has held the position since 2016.

Nordsee has been operating from Bremerhaven since 2015, when its parent group at the time invested €5 million ($5.8 million) in constructing the offices that accommodate about 150 people.

Dairy giant Muller Gruppe sold Nordsee to Swiss investment vehicle Kharis Capital in October 2018, after a series of takeover talks a year prior.
