Victor Arapan, the current chief financial officer, will be stepping down from his position to explore new opportunities. Victor has been a core member of Purcari Wineries’ management team for more than 13 years and has played a pivotal role in the company’s turnaround after the Russian embargo of 2013.
His strategic vision, work ethic and meticulous planning were instrumental in navigating the group through challenging times, ultimately leading to a successful IPO, Purari said.
“We bid farewell to a member of the team who has been a pillar for Purcari Wineries and the driving force behind the company’s financial success and strength for more than thirteen years. Victor played a truly important role in shaping this group and his expertise has been an integral part of our success. We extend our deepest appreciation and wish him the very best in his new beginnings,” said Victor Bostan, CEO of Purcari Wineries Group.
Belibov is a Moldovan native with more than 15 years’ experience in the financial area, including aspects such as accounting, internal control, financial services, as well as management of financial transformation projects. He has worked in several Central, Eastern and South European markets for global leading companies such as KPMG, Nestle and AkzoNobel, covering both local and regional positions.
In his new role, Belibov will continue to lead and develop Purcari Wineries Group’s financial team.
