Australian bulk grain handler GrainCorp Ltd. on Wednesday announced the appointment of Robert Spurway as chief executive of the firm, following the demerger of its malt business, reports Reuters.
GrainCorp is in the process separating its malting division from its core grain processing division, as it seeks to create two agribusiness companies with more attractive prospects.
Spurway is currently the chief operation officer for global operations at New Zealand-based diary giant Fonterra Co-operative Group, where he has held the role since 2014.
