On Thursday, new details about the circumstances of J. Kvaraciejus' death were revealed, marking a significant moment for the Lithuanian business community. Kvaraciejus unexpectedly passed away in Tenerife, prompting an outpouring of tributes from colleagues and business organizations across Lithuania. The company he co-founded, 'Pieno žvaigždės', stated that over the years he earned deep respect not only among his employees but throughout the entire business sector for his sense of responsibility and professionalism.

In addition to his business acumen, the late Kvaraciejus was noted for his philanthropic efforts, supporting various social, cultural, and educational projects throughout his life, often without seeking publicity for his charitable work. These contributions were highlighted by the 'Pieno žvaigždės' company and met with condolences from entities like the Lithuanian Milk Producers Association, 'Pieno centras', illustrating the high regard in which he was held.

Born in 1957 and a graduate of Vilnius University where he studied economics, Kvaraciejus established 'Pieno žvaigždės' in 1998 alongside partners, subsequently growing it into one of Lithuania’s leading dairy processing companies. His passing is not only a loss for his family and friends but also a notable gap in the Lithuanian dairy sector, as he significantly contributed to its development in recent decades.
