How we operate

Here, you’ll find details on our governance structure, including the roles of the Board, CEO, and management team, as well as policies that guide our commitment to transparency and long-term success.

Corporate governance structure

At Kustom, we believe in a corporate governance framework that ensures and fosters clear accountability and effective decision-making. Our structure defines the roles and responsibilities of shareholders, the Board, the CEO, and the management team, ensuring transparency, strategic oversight, and strong leadership.

The Board

The Board is Kustom’s highest decision-making authority, responsible for overseeing the company’s strategy, organizational structure, and operations. It also holds ultimate responsibility for ensuring strong corporate governance throughout the organization.

Board members are elected by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) and serve a one-year term until the next AGM. As Kustom is not required to have a nomination committee, no formal nomination policy has been established. In practice, board members are nominated and appointed by shareholders holding the majority of voting rights and company capital.

Martin is an entrepreneur and investor specializing in consumer goods and tech. He is Chairman of the Board at Kustom and Instabee and advises multiple companies.

He holds a Master of Economics from the Stockholm School of Economics and began his career at McKinsey, spending seven years in Stockholm, Berlin, and Moscow. In 2006, he co-founded Nshift and Vitamin Well—both of which later became unicorns—where he served as CEO and Chairman for 15 years.
