Café cabrales and the leadership succesion

In March 2025, after decades of family management and now in its fourth generation, Cabrales S.A. made the decision to transition to non-family management, bringing in an external General Manager to lead the company under the supervision of a renewed Board of Directors.
After a thorough overhaul of the bylaws and family protocol, and nearly six months of searching, a General Manager was hired. The most visible aspects were completed, but the real challenge had only just begun: ensuring a successful management transition, adjusting the functioning of the Board of Directors, and maintaining focus on business management and growth.
