Chairman David Smith confirmed all business lines and subsidiaries will report to Ellis, including Dan Reeves, the recently-appointed CEO of Freshmax’s Australia unit and Murray McCallum, the chief executive of the company’s separate Australian distribution and packing arm Valleyfresh.
In a statement, Freshmax said it had experienced a year of “transformational expansion” in 2014 and 2015, following the merger with New Zealand fruit packer Crasborn Bros. and the acquisition of Murawee Farms stone-orchards in Victoria.
Smith added: “2016 looks exciting for our group as our management team drives the business forward.”
