His successor Imhof was considered an outsider in the election against the previous vice president Massimo Suter from Ticino. The race was already decided in the first round of voting, as Gastrosuisse announced. The 52-year-old Imhof received 134 votes, Suter 83.

Imhof is a trained chef and completed his master’s degree in Lucerne. The father of two children has been president of Gastro Winterthur since 2023.
