<p>The company said that David Bauernfeind, 51, died in a snorkelling accident on the Indian Ocean island on St Stephen&#8217;s Day.</p>
<p>According to local press reports, a British tourist, believed to be Mr Bauernfeind, was found by a sailor off the coast of the island.</p>
<p>He was taken back to shore and a post mortem found he had drowned.</p>
<p><em>“We are all deeply shocked and saddened by this tragic news,”</em> said David Wild, the company’s chief executive.</p>
<p><em>“On behalf of our board, our colleagues and our franchisees, we send our heartfelt sympathies to David’s wife Nicolette and daughter Ornella, as well as his wider family and friends.”</em></p>
<p>Mr Bauernfeind became the fourth person in four years to head the finance department for the pizza company when he was appointed in October 2018.</p>
<p>He has also been the chief financial officer of Connect Group, the newspaper distribution company formerly owned by WH Smith, and Xchanging, a technology company where he worked for 15 years.</p>
<p>Mauritius newspaper L’Express reported that the body of the British tourist was found at 11.45am on Thursday off the coast of Belle-Mare, on the east of the island.</p>
<p>The body was taken to Victoria Hospital, further inland. The cause of death was asphyxia due to drowning.</p>
<p><em>“David was hugely liked and deeply respected for his dedication and sharp intellect amongst Domino’s colleagues. He was a force for good within the business and will be greatly missed,”</em> Mr Wild said.</p>
