About

Aurel Keller

I am a brand, communication and sustainability expert with over 25 years of leadership experience in marketing, sales and category management – primarily in FMCG and retail.

As CMO and member of the executive board I built, positioned and rolled out brands such as Café Royal, Delizio and CoffeeB internationally. This includes marketing concepts, communication strategies as well as responsibility for sustainability and impact partnerships.

With Allegretto Advisory in Dubai I support companies on a project basis and as interim. As a door-opener to retail and with experience in building route-to-market strategies I also help startups and brands enter and conquer markets.

“Strong brands are created through clear positioning and consistent market success – not by chance.”
