Henrik replaces current CEO Mats Båverud and represents the third generation of the owner family. He is the son of Christina Stark, owner of the second generation, and Gert Gilstring, who currently works as senior design engineer at Väderstad.

Henrik has worked at Väderstad since 2012 and currently serves as vice president for business development and is a member of group management. 

“I’m looking forward to continuing to drive Väderstad forward sustainably and to ensure that, as a company, we are able to adapt to the challenges and opportunities ahead, both with regard to agricultural development in general and in terms of new political and global ground rules,” he said.

Prior to his present role in Väderstad, Henrik served as business controller of production, sales and marketing, and product development. He also worked on issues related to product management and strategy and served on the board. 

Crister Stark, chairman of the board of Väderstad Group said, “The decision gives us good conditions for an efficient and smooth handover, and a rejuvenation of the CEO role.”
