Giørtz-Carlsen named at Arla Foods

摘要

Arla Foods has appointed Peter Giortz-Carlsen to its executive board, to further strengthen the leadership and corporate governance of the company's growing operations, in what it sees is an increasingly complex, fast moving and volatile global food industry. Arla Foods chairman Jan Toft Nørgaard says, "Arla Foods is a large and complex global company with a highly experienced CEO at the helm. Throughout much of our history we have had an executive board member who has acted as a sparring partner to the CEO, in addition to carrying out specific executive duties. However, since Povl Krogsgaard's retirement just over a year ago, we have operated without that role and therefore I am pleased that, with the appointment of Peter Giortz-Carlsen, as we are re-establishing a two person executive board."
