As Managing Director, Andreas Jacobi will be responsible for investment, expansion and corporate strategy at Etepetete. With his help, the organic vegetable supplier aims to optimize its product concept, expand its product range and expand globally. An investment round is also due to take place soon. Jacobi is the third new addition to Etepetete in just a few months. Before him, Head of Marketing Heiko Eckert and COO Philippe Renoirte joined the company.

Jacobi brings with him experience from various management positions: He was Managing Director at the Telelingua Group and COO at the Acolad Group, for example. "With Andreas Jacobi, we are expanding the C-Level division with an accomplished, experienced colleague who has successfully demonstrated entrepreneurial action for many years," say Eckert and Renoirte. "He has the necessary vision and strong will to continue to lead Etepetete to success in all future challenges."

Georg Lindermair, Christopher Hallhuber and Carsten Wille founded Etepetete in 2015. The Munich-based start-up offers organic food boxes on a subscription model. These contain rescued fruit and vegetables that are not sold due to visual defects but are still edible.
