Copenhagen – Maersk Container Industry (MCI), a leading manufacturer of refrigerated containers and a subsidiary of A.P. Moller - Maersk (Maersk), announces that current CCO Søren Leth Johannsen will take over as new CEO of the company in November. He will replace Sean Fitzgerald who has decided to step down from the role as CEO and relocate to the US.

I am very pleased that Søren Leth Johannsen has accepted being appointed CEO of MCI. With his many years at MCI, he has great insight in both market and customers, which will be valuable on the journey ahead.

MCI is a high-performing and innovative company with a very skilled and talented organisation, and I am excited to take on the position as CEO.
