Yesterday, Ahold CEO Anders Moberg sent an email to the retailer’s 800 executives, which was obtained by the Financial Times. In it, Moberg denied media reports that the company’s board is divided.
The company told just-food that it is currently completing a strategic review, which will be presented at some point this autumn. Ahold is as yet unable to give a more specific indication of when this is likely to be.
