He has established a solid financial foundation and built strong finance teams in the various countries. Under Dennis’s leadership, major refinancings of the Company have been completed, significant cost savings have been realized and several acquisition and divestment transactions have been successfully completed. Thanks in part to these steps, Wereldhave is currently in a strong growth phase.”

Matthijs Storm, CEO of Wereldhave N.V. stated: “I am very grateful to Dennis for what we have achieved together over the past seven years.

While I personally regret his decision, I also fully respect his choice to hand over the baton after eight years.”

Dennis de Vreede said: "As I look ahead to the upcoming AGM in 2026, where I will step down from my role at Wereldhave, I take great pride in what we have achieved together. Over the past eight years, we have successfully repositioned Wereldhave, restoring confidence among investors, banks, and other stakeholders. I am very grateful for the dedication of my colleagues and the trust of our partners, which has helped us to truly put Wereldhave back on the map."

The Supervisory Board and CEO Matthijs Storm wish Dennis all the best in his further career.
