Nick Foster has been appointed as country general manager of the French pet food manufacturer.
Foster will lead the UK division of Royal Canin, bringing with him his “unique multi-functional perspective” gained from different director positions at Mars Pet Nutrition in the past 14 years, most recently as Interim Sales Director.
He was recognized in Marketing Week’s Top 100 for 2020 for his leadership in digital transformation.
“My focus will be to continue driving our health through nutrition philosophy by building on the impressive impact my predecessor, Jimmy Park has made on the business,” commented Foster.
The announcement comes as former GM Jimmy Park returns to Korea after driving the company division through different transformations, including its approach to COVID-19 and its first direct-to-consumer offering.
