Tefcold owner becomes Interlevin MD

UK: Torben L Christensen, the owner of Tefcold, has taken over as MD of Interlevin Refrigeration.

He replaces Jonathan Corns who was appointed MD last year shortly after the company’s acquisition by Tefcold, the Danish family owned commercial refrigeration company.

“We see Interlevin as a very important part of the Tefcold Group and for Interlevin to reach its full potential we believe we have an obligation to get the best possible integration into the group,” said Christensen. 

“The group management have decided that I take over as MD in order to make sure we share best practices around processes through the group and grow Interlevin within the marketplace. While we have seen many operational improvements during the last financial year, we know that there is still room to grow and maximise our offering within the commercial refrigeration sector.”
