Nutreco chief executive to step down
Nutreco CEO, Rob Koremans, has just announced that he will be retiring from his role this summer after leading the company for the past three years.
“I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of Nutreco and supporting the company in living its purpose of Feeding the Future. It’s been a privilege to work with so many passionate and motivated people, both within the company and in the industry," he commented.
Nutreco said it was Koremans' personal decision to retire from the company.
Fulco van Lede will join Nutreco as CEO on August 15, taking over from where Koremans left off. He was appointed as a member of the executive board of directors of SHV on July 1, 2018, after having served in different positions in Makro and SHV Energy; in the latter ultimately as CEO of the SHV energy board.
Koremans is to stay on in the company until the end of the year as an advisor to the Nutreco executive leadership team to ensure a smooth transition and to facilitate the startup of a new fundamental research unit that will develop and introduce proprietary products such as feed additives and specialty ingredients.
