As announced in September Carlos Diaz formally took over the position as CEO in the BioMar Group on November 14th. He used the occasion to announce a new executive structure, which will enable BioMar to strengthen further its value proposition to customers globally.

“The new BioMar Management Team will focus on delivering a strong global value proposition tailored to our customer’s needs in all the different environments where they are operating”, expressed Carlos Diaz.

The BioMar group is one of the leading suppliers of high performance fish feed to the aquaculture industry.

The new team will consist of an Executive Committee composed by Carlos Diaz, CEO, and Mogens Stentebjerg, CFO, and interacting with a Management Team comprised by the heads of BioMar’s three market regions and key global functions including Research & Development, Marketing, Sourcing & Business Relations, and HR.

“The new team is a very operational team with strong roots in the market areas complemented by functional directors supervising that we cross utilize product innovations and concepts as well as organizational competences between regions."

"We want to continue to be close to our customers and at the same time we want strengthen our capability of fast development and commercialization of innovative feed concepts and products worldwide through a well-coordinated effort,” said Carlos Diaz.

Carlos Diaz emphasized, that BioMar traditionally has had a major strength with a relatively decentralized structure. “We want to keep that, but seen in the light of more globalized customers and BioMar’s ambitious expansion plans into new market areas one of the main tasks of the new Global Management Team will be to ensure that innovations are brought faster to the markets and especially rolled out across markets globally,” he said.
