    Neil Sanderson is leaving the food industry and will be replaced by Floreale Operations Director, Doug Robertson

    Florette UK and Ireland managing director Neil Sanderson is leaving the business to pursue a career outside of the food industry and will be replaced by Floreale operations director Doug Robertson.

    Sanderson, who has been with Florette for five years, will take up the role of director of the York Minster Fund – a body established in the late 1960s in order to raise money for the great work of restoration when the Central Tower was in danger of collapse.

    Robertson has worked across the European fresh produce industry with roles at Asda, Geest and Bakkavor, in operations, procurement and general management.

    He joined the vegetable division of Florette parent company Agrial to become general manager of Florette Murcia, following the acquisition of the French and Spanish businesses of Bakkavor. For the last three years he has been operations director for the division.

    His replacement will be named in the next few weeks.

    “The company wish to thank Neil for his contribution to the company over the last five years,” a statement from Florette said.

    “We are also delighted to announce that Doug Robertson will be moving from his role in the Floreale central team as operations director to replace Neil in the role of MD Florette UK and Ireland.”

    Sanderson is due to stay with the business during the transition period to help complete a series of projects.
