Gulf Craft Group appoints CEO

Gulf Craft Group has appointed Yannis Haidis as the group’s CEO. Haidis will oversee the overall development of the group’s future evolution, aimed at propelling international expansion into new markets and opportunities for the company.

The news comes following the transition from Gulf Craft to the formation and establishment of Gulf Craft Group, a new umbrella group that integrates the company’s brands, shipyard and services, in February 2024.

Haidis brings over 30 years of international experience with major multinational FMCG corporations in the EMEA region.

UAE-based Gulf Craft Group says Haidis’ proven track record in leading corporate transitions aligns with the group’s needs. His primary focus will be leading this important phase and ensuring a smooth integration into the new organisational framework.

The Gulf Craft Group umbrella includes an extensive portfolio of yacht and boat brands, including Majesty Yachts, Nomad Yachts, Oryx Sports Cruisers, Silvercraft Boats, SilverCat Boats, and Touring & Utility Vessels. The Gulf Craft Shipyard, Gulf Craft Services, and Gulf Craft Maldives are also incorporated into the new framework.
