Pro-Populus elects a new President (European Poplar association)

12/12/2011

On 5 December 2011, the European Poplar Association, Pro-Populus, held an extraordinary General Assembly in the Cei-Bois premises in Brussels. On this occasion, the members have chosen Mrs Nicoletta Azzi as the new President of the Association. She replaces Mr Bernard Mourlan, who was holding this function since the creation of Pro-Populus three years ago.

Nicoletta Azzi, Italian member of Pro-Populus and representative of the company Panguaneta will be assisted by vice-presidents Mr Pedro Garnica (ES), Mr Bernard Mourlan (FR) and Mr Fabio Boccalari (IT) as well as by Board members Mr Marc De Bock (BE), Mr André Deterck (BE) and Mr Hervé Drouin (FR).

Earlier this year, during its General Assembly in Mantova (IT), Pro-Populus appointed Mr François Sougnez as their new Secretary General, thereby maintaining the link with the European Confederation of Woodworking industries (Cei-Bois), which keeps on supporting Pro-Populus and hosting its headquarters.
