Molson Coors Appoints Mauricio Restrepo as Chief Financial Officer

Mauricio has an impressive track record in the alcohol beverage industry and is the ideal candidate to help Molson Coors grow and deliver shareholder value. In his prior roles, Mauricio has proved himself a key member of executive leadership teams, driving finance, tax, treasury, M&A, and business development in both developed and emerging markets," said Mark Hunter, President and CEO of Molson Coors Brewing Company. “Together with his deep knowledge of the Miller business internationally, we are fortunate to have attracted such a high caliber finance executive and look forward to leveraging his extensive knowledge and experience.

“At the same time, I want to thank David for a job well done as interim Global Chief Financial Officer since last November. David’s strong and steady leadership has been invaluable to our executive leadership team as we navigated through two earnings cycles and announced our game-changing acquisition of MillerCoors.”

Prior to his time with Beam Suntory, Restrepo spent nine years with SABMiller in senior finance roles, first as CFO of SABMiller Latin America and later CFO of SABMiller Europe. He joined SABMiller in 2005 when SAB acquired Colombia-based Grupo Empresarial Bavaria where he was Chief Financial Officer. Mauricio has also held commercial and finance leadership roles in the publishing, automotive and banking industries.
