Another record milk price for Tatua suppliers
Independent Waikato milk processor Tatua has set another new record for conventional farmgate milk price paid to New Zealand farmers.
Former Tatua Dairy chief executive Paul McGilvary has joined the AsureQuality board.
McGilvary retired from Tatua after eight years at the helm.
He has a Bachelor of Commerce and Administration (Hons) from Victoria University in Wellington and has worked in a variety of industries including dairy, horticulture, research, infrastructure and the motor industry.
He has worked throughout Australia, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom, USA, Japan and China, and held management and governance roles for NZ Milk Products, Fonterra and HortResearch.
“Paul brings a wealth of commercial experience to the AsureQuality board, both in terms of international marketing and business expertise, and leadership acumen,” says Janine Smith, AsureQuality chair.
“His ability to foster solid and beneficial business relationships, and his understanding of the risks and challenges inherent in globalisation, will support AsureQuality’s strategic priority of growing our global presence through new collaborative opportunities. We are delighted to welcome Paul to the Board, and look forward to the contribution he will make as we continue to extend the breadth and quality of the company’s services.”
