Nestlé has appointed Stefano Bolognese as the new managing director for Nestlé Waters and Premium Beverages UK.


He succeeds Grant McKenzie, who has been named head of Northern Europe for Nestlé Waters & Premium Beverages.


In his new role, Bolognese will oversee the UK Waters and Premium Beverages business, which includes brands such as Princes Gate, Buxton, Nestlé Pure Life, S. Pellegrino, and Sanpellegrino Italian Sparkling Drinks. He will also join the leadership team for Nestlé UK & Ireland.


Bolognese, who joined Nestlé in 2000, brings experience in sales, marketing and business development across Italy's waters and food categories. He most recently led the Sanpellegrino's international business unit, helping expand the portfolios of Acqua Panna, S. Pellegrino and Sanpellegrino Beverages globally.


Bolognese said: “I am honoured to step into the role of managing director for Nestlé Waters and Premium Beverages UK at such an exciting time for the business. My focus will be on nurturing the truly remarkable brands we have here, including Buxton and Princes Gate."


"I can see that I'm joining a fantastic team and I'll be looking to create an environment where they can excel even further and continue the great work they're already doing, like the latest innovative water capture project in Pembrokeshire.”
