Luxembourg-based mover and record-management business, Streff, has announced the death of its Managing Director, Max Chorus, on July 20.
In a statement, the company said: ‘We are deeply saddened to announce the unexpected passing of our CEO and co-owner, Max Chorus, at the age of 65. Max’s kindness and strong values were a cornerstone of our company, and his visionary leadership guided us the last 30 years. His commitment to excellence and unwavering integrity will remain an inspiration to all of us.
‘Max’s legacy will continue through the dedication of his family. He will be greatly missed.’
Paying tribute, FIDI said Streff was the first company in Luxembourg to join the organisation in which Max had played an active role. It said: ‘Max was a pillar of the FIDI community, having contributed countless hours as a FIDI volunteer to help improve our organisation, both in his role at FIDI ADA, serving as President and founder of the association, and as a long-standing member of the FIDI PCG and Dispute Resolution Committees.
‘Max was a critical thinker, mentor, and dear friend to many. A pioneer of our industry, he challenged the status quo and led the way when it came to sustainability, long before this became a critical issue, and embraced the latest technologies and trends. He was committed to making a positive contribution, in building a sustainable and solid foundation for the future generations of his family.
‘Our thoughts are with his family and colleagues.’
A full obituary and tribute to Max will be published in the forthcoming issue of FIDI Focus magazine.
