GLOBAL food company Marfrig has announced that its UK-based business Moy Park, which has a site at Anwick, will take responsibility for the leadership and management of operations in Europe, as part of a European reorganisation of the group.
The new organisation will bring together European business units under the direction of Moy Park, making Moy Park responsible for business turnover in Europe of around £1.5 billion.
The restructure has been introduced as part of Marfrig's strategy of becoming a leading global food company with a strong presence in its core markets.
According to Nigel Dunlop, who has been appointed as Moy Park Europe CEO, the purpose of this new and more integrated organisation will be to build on the core strengths and capabilities of each of the businesses currently operating across the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe for the benefit of its customers and consumers.
Mr Dunlop said: "We believe that by bringing together the business units and functions currently operating across Europe, we can make better use of the respective strengths of each to better meet our customers' expectations for innovative, high quality and affordable consumer products.
"These changes will enable us to develop and grow as a strong and profitable business across Marfrig's entire European operations and ensure we can compete effectively for the benefit of the business and its people."
The reorganisation brings with it operational capability for Moy Park in beef as well as poultry production and a range of other food products. Reported by This is 2 hours ago.
