Expanded Auping’s multichannel and Walloon market

He currently works for Dutch Auping, where he has overseen its operations in Belgium and Luxembourg for the past 2.5 years. His main challenge was to further expand Auping’s market position and to help guide the brand into the digital age, mainly with a multichannel approach and social media. It is not yet clear who will succeed him at Auping.
Stox previously worked for IKEA, Philips and also spent seven years at HighCo DATA as a sales director.
