Food and drink industry people on the move – in November
Wardle resigned as leader of the group, including its food, drink and grocery retail businesses, after a video on the Mail on Sunday website allegedly showed former Co-operative Bank chairman Paul Flowers handing over £300 for cocaine.
Wardle said: “I led the board that appointed Paul Flowers to lead the bank board and under those circumstances I feel that it is right that I step down now, ahead of my planned retirement in May next year.”
Elsewhere, there were changes at the top of Irish dairy firm Glanbia and Wal-Mart, with Siobhan Talbot replacing John Maloney and Doug McMillon taking over from Mike Duke, respectively.
