Tyson Foods names new CEO and president
Tyson Foods is making a change at the top of the executive chain of command by naming Noel White as the new CEO and president of the company, effective September 30. White is to replace Tom Hayes, CEO since just late 2016, who is stepping down for “personal reasons,” the company said in a statement.
Until now, Noel White was the president of beef, pork and International division inside the group, reports Pork Business magazine. "Noel is a proven leader who has played an integral role in our enterprise leadership team for many years. He has run our beef, pork, and poultry businesses and is now helping Tyson Foods capitalize on international opportunities", said John Tyson, chairman of Tyson’s board of directors.
Tyson Foods is the largest meat processor in the US, hiring 122,000 people in its seven beef plants, six pork plants and 37 chicken facilities.
White declared himself honoured by the nomination and insisted that thanks to "the company’s strong portfolio of fast-growing brands, diverse capabilities, exceptional enterprise leadership team and dedicated team members, we are well-positioned for continued success."
