The members of the Brewers of Romania Association have elected Mihai Voicu, General Manager of Bergenbier S.A., part of the Molson Coors Beverage Company group, as President. Starting January 1, 2025, Mihai Voicu took over this position from Michal Mrowiec, President of URSUS Breweries, who held the role since January 1, 2024.
“I am delighted to take on the role of President of the Brewers of Romania Association for the second time, my first term being in 2022. In 2025, the Brewers of Romania Association celebrates 20 years of activity, two decades during which our industry has been represented through this common voice of producers across the country. Over this time, our sector has experienced periods of growth as well as economic challenges, along with society at large. Our commitment to keeping beer a favorite choice for Romanians and developing this industry through sustainable investments has kept us united. In the uncertain times we are currently navigating, it is more important than ever to maintain this unified voice and continue the close collaboration we have within the Association and with public sector partners. I begin this term with the same determination I have shown in the past and with the energy fueled by the extended Brewers of Romania family,” stated Mihai Voicu, President of the Brewers of Romania Association.
Mihai Voicu has been the General Manager of Bergenbier S.A. since 2020. He joined the company over 14 years ago, previously holding the positions of General Manager of Kamenitza Brewery in Bulgaria and Sales Director at Bergenbier S.A.
