DIRECTOR: FBU: Fletcher Building advises retirement of Hugh Fletcher
Auckland, 18 September 2012 - Fletcher Building Limited advises that Hugh
Fletcher will retire as a non-executive director of Fletcher Building and
Fletcher Building Industries with effect from 30 September 2012 as part of
the succession arrangement for directors.
Chairman Ralph Waters said that Hugh Fletcher's retirement will mark the end
of an era for Fletcher Building.
"Hugh's retirement from the board will end the last formal link with the
Fletcher family that stretches back over one hundred years to the very
origins of the company in New Zealand. In addition to serving as a
non-executive director of Fletcher Building since 2001, Hugh was also chief
executive officer of Fletcher Challenge Limited between 1987 and 1997, the
forerunner of today's company. Interestingly, it was exactly 34 years ago on
this day that Hugh was first appointed to the board of Fletcher Holdings.
"On behalf of the board and shareholders, I would like to acknowledge and
thank Hugh for his long service and insightful contribution to Fletcher
Building, and wish him well for the future," Mr Waters said.
