DIRECTOR: PGW: PGG Wrightson Managing Director Steps Down
PGG Wrightson has announced that its Managing Director, George Gould, will
stand down on 31 August 2013.
PGG Wrightson Chairman, Sir John Anderson, acknowledged the contribution Mr
Gould has made to PGG Wrightson since agreeing to be Managing Director in
February 2011.
"A non-executive director at the time, with a successful track record in
rural servicing, particularly as a former Managing Director of Pyne Gould
Guinness Limited, George agreed to be Managing Director of PGG Wrightson to
help stabilise the company as it re-focussed on its core business".
"George has performed his task admirably and whilst the board will be sorry
to see him leave, his tenure was for a fixed and relatively short period and
for a particular purpose" Sir John said.
Mr Gould said that he was pleased to have been able to assist PGG Wrightson,
particularly with regards to the rural servicing business with which he had
a long standing affinity.
"It has been a pleasure to serve a great company, and post 31 August, I will
enjoy watching from the side lines as PGG Wrightson goes from strength to
strength", Mr Gould said.
Sir John advised that a selection process is proceeding to determine Mr
Gould's successor.
