by David Fleschen

Effective May 1, 2025, Ian Fischer has been appointed Managing Director at CREMER ERZKONTOR, joining Nils Fleig at the helm of the company. Fischer succeeds Roberto Wurst, who departed the company in January 2025, and will oversee the business segments previously managed by Wurst.

“With Ian Fischer, we are welcoming a highly experienced colleague from within our own ranks to the management board—someone who knows our company and our business inside out,” said Nils Fleig, Managing Director of CREMER ERZKONTOR. “As a longstanding member of our management team, he played a central role in building and positioning our chemicals division. In his new role, Ian will bring valuable momentum to our future development.”

Fischer has been with CREMER ERZKONTOR for seven years, holding various leadership positions including Managing Director of the company’s subsidiary in Mexico and, most recently, Head of Division Chemicals. During his tenure, he significantly expanded the company’s footprint in Latin America and strategically developed its global chemicals business—establishing it as a core pillar of the company’s operations.

Prior to joining CREMER ERZKONTOR, Fischer spent a decade with BdV Behrens GmbH, where he oversaw operations in Brazil and Panama. His extensive international experience, strong leadership skills, and entrepreneurial mindset make him an ideal choice for this key role.

“I’m truly excited about this new chapter and grateful for the trust placed in me,” said Ian Fischer. “CREMER ERZKONTOR combines a rich history with a forward-looking strategy. I look forward to working with the team to drive the company’s continued success and to explore new avenues for growth.”
