GP Transitions Leadership Role

 Christian Fischer, Georgia-Pacific president and CEO, announced in July he is retiring from the company at the end of October and will work to transition his responsibilities. He joined GP in 1989 and has held numerous leadership roles. He was named president and CEO in 2017. 

Mark Luetters, currently executive vice president of Koch, Inc., overseeing several Koch companies, including Georgia-Pacific, will continue in that role while serving as GP’s president and CEO. Luetters says GP plans to name a new president and CEO during 2026. He joined Koch in 1989 and Georgia-Pacific in 2006 and, among other roles, was executive vice president of GP Building Products for nine years prior to returning to a role in another Koch company in 2018.
