Due to many years of experience in standard development, execution and implementation, she is the contact person for all interested companies, certification bodies and other stakeholders. Kesta Ludemann studied Ecotrophology at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-University of Bonn with focus on quality management in the food industry. She gained practical experience in conducting audits and creating audit checklists during her diploma thesis through international cooperation with the interest group "Grenzüberschreitende Integrierte Qualitätssicherung e.V.", the QS and IKB standards. Kesta Ludemann gained professional experience during the following eight years in a renowned, internationally active trading company in the food, health and wellness sector. Moreover, she gained auditing experience based on various standards required by the food retail trade and the implementation of new management systems through the (supplier) audits carried out worldwide and through the additional qualification as "Auditor Quality". The increasing demands of both, the retail trade, and the end consumer brought her to the topic of sustainable management.
