“Alex has a wealth of experience in strategy, agribusiness, supply chains, and digital solutions and we are looking forward to him making a valuable contribution to our sheep and beef industry.
“I want to thank Mark Clarkson for his contribution to B+LNZ’s Board over the last nine years. He has been a fantastic member of the Board, his depth of knowledge and understanding of issues has been outstanding. Mark has also been a great mentor to our young directors,” Mr Morrison said.
Alex’s appointment to the Board has been endorsed by the Meat Industry Association of New Zealand.
