Desirée Jaks and Janni Berndt Dahl Recognized as Significant Women in Stureplansgruppen

Last week, during International Women’s Day, the Stureplan Group published an article celebrating the women who drive the group forward and ensure its operation. Our former creative director, Desirée Jaks, was naturally mentioned. She was recognized for her strong commitment to gender equality in the industry and her victory in the Chef of the Year 2023 competition.

Our restaurant manager and head sommelier, Janni Berndt Dahl, was also rightfully highlighted for her involvement as the chairperson of the Swedish Sommelier Association and her outstanding work at Spesso.

A big thank you Stureplansgruppen!
