FrieslandCampina announces new UK managing director

People08 Dec 2016by Katie Pathiaki

Dairy cooperative FrieslandCampina has appointed Gavin Blair as UK managing director.

 

Blair joins from Diageo, and brings 20 years of experience in the fast-moving consumer goods sector from Nestlé and Mars Confectionery.

 

Blair said: "FrieslandCampina has always stood out in both the soft drinks and dairy industry. Its focus on producing nutritious and well-balanced dairy products is more important than ever as health and well-being become increasingly important for UK households. I'm excited by the opportunity ahead, especially as the category evolves with more advanced new product development. It's genuinely a fantastic time to join the team."

 

FrieslandCampina is best known for its Yazoo milk drinks and Optiwell yogurt drinks.
