Rusta's Board of Directors has appointed Cathrine Wigzell as the new CEO as of 1st of June 2026. She will succeed Göran Westerberg, who announced earlier this year that he will leave his position latest by end of June 2026.

“We are delighted to announce that Cathrine Wigzell will join Rusta as CEO. The Board is confident that we have found a great retail leader, who with her broad and international experience has the expertise to lead Rusta through its continued growth journey. Throughout the recruitment process, we have come to know Cathrine as a visionary, clear-sighted retailer, and a driven leader, who we believe will strengthen Rusta’s winning culture and be an exceptional CEO moving forward," says Claus Juel-Jensen, Chairman of the Board of Rusta.

"It is an exciting and incredibly motivating assignment to lead Rusta, a company with strong growth and a profitable business, a unique position in the low-price market and a loyal customer base. I am eager to contributing to the ongoing development of Rusta's range and strengthening its continued expansion. The opportunities are great, and I am committed to offering Rusta's customers even more inspiring products and experiences, while creating sustainable long-term value for our shareholders," says Cathrine Wigzell, incoming CEO of Rusta.
