​“Since joining the company’s management team in 2019, I have gone through almost the full business development cycle – from challenging periods of transformation to new ambitions and growth. These years have given me valuable experience and an excellent opportunity to work with a talented team and shareholders who truly believe in, and are ready to invest in, the development of a company that plays an important role in Latvia’s economy. I am grateful for this time and for the trust placed in me. Olpha has patriotic, long‑term oriented local shareholders who continue to invest in the company’s growth, and I am confident that the company will achieve its strategic goals. As I have started to actively develop my own business consulting firm, I have decided to focus my energy on its growth,” says Jānis Buks.

“We highly value the professional work, experience and personal contribution of Jānis Buks, which over the past six years has helped the company to navigate significant change, to strengthen its new strategy and to develop a product portfolio that lays the foundations for Olpha’s future growth. We are grateful to Jānis for both his professional and human qualities in our cooperation. His professional contribution will help Olpha to move forward with confidence in its future. We wish Jānis every success and hope that his new project will become another Latvian business success story,” says JSC Olpha co‑owner Andrejs Leibovičs.
