New Managing Director for Wibit Sports: Tarak Charfi Starts on Aug 1st

(eap) Wibit Sports (Wibit), one of the leisure and attractions market‘s leading providers of inflatable water parks, is announcing a further change on its management level. On August 1 this year, Tarak Charfi will take over sales responsibility for the company as the new joint managing director alongside Ralf Schwung. Romann Rademacher, co-founder of Wibit Sports, will withdraw from the operational management of the company in the coming months – his business partner Robert Cirjak had already taken this step at the beginning of the year in order to transfer the commercial management to Ralf Schwung. Together, the two former founders want to ensure an orderly succession at management level (read also our EAP-News of 7 Feb 2024).

Tarak Charfi, who is joining the company from noise protection manufacturer Cellofoam, holds a degree in business administration and has two decades of experience in both, national and global settings. He brings extensive expertise in sales management and business development into his new role at Wibit. “Together with our shareholder Argos Wityu [a European holding, Editor’s Note], we have invested time and care to find the person who fits Wibit perfectly both professionally and personally. We are very pleased that we were able to win Tarak over and look forward to working with him,“ comments Ralf Schwung.

Romann Rademacher explains, “I am very pleased that we have managed to ensure an orderly succession plan for Wibit. Without the pressure to hurry a decision, we were able to thoughtfully find the right people. I will accompany the transition phase without any rush and look forward to being able to devote myself to other topics after 28 years with Wibit. I will remain loyal to Wibit on the advisory board and look forward to seeing how the fantastic team will continue to develop the company.“

Wibit has been serving the market for floating water parks and inflatable water attractions for almost three decades – the provider has already realized projects in more than one hundred countries. Its customers include beach and lake destinations, hotels and swimming pools. ■
