Australian Vintage Limited (ASX: AVG) is pleased to announce the appointment of Tom Dusseldorp as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective 30 April 2025.

This appointment marks a significant milestone in the company’s evolution, as Mr Dusseldorp brings a strong blend of strategic vision, commercial acumen, and proven leadership to the role.

Mr Dusseldorp succeeds Craig Garvin, who has led Australian Vintage through a period of significant transformation. Under Mr Garvin’s leadership, the company strengthened its brand portfolio, deepened its commitment to sustainability, and enhanced its operating model to better position itself for long-term growth.

The Board thanks Mr Garvin for his substantial contributions and the transformational leadership he brought to Australian Vintage during a dynamic period for both the business and the broader wine industry.

Prior to this appointment, Mr Dusseldorp served as Chief Commercial Officer, overseeing the company’s marketing and brand strategy across Australia and key global markets including the UK, North America, and Asia.

Reflecting on his appointment, Mr Dusseldorp acknowledged the strong foundations laid by Mr Garvin. He noted that the business is now well-positioned to accelerate its efforts to deliver sustainable positive cash flow through targeted investments in innovation and brand development. He also emphasised a continued focus on capital efficiency, cost discipline, and the agility required to respond to opportunities and manage risk.

Mr Dusseldorp joined Australian Vintage in 2022 and brings over 15 years of senior leadership experience across the Australian and UK markets. His career includes more than a decade with global drinks leader Pernod Ricard, along with senior roles at Noumi—where he built the powerhouse MilkLab brand—Camp Australia, and the food-tech start-up All G Foods.
