LONDON (Alliance News) - Hilton Food Group PLC on Friday said Philip Heffer, the group's chief operating officer for UK & Ireland, has been promoted to COO for all of Hilton's businesses.
This comes as Theo Bergman, the group's COO for Continental Europe, has stepped down with immediate effect.
The meat-packing business said Bergman has resigned due to personal circumstances but will continue to work for the company on a number of different projects.
"On behalf of the board I would like to thank Theo for his significant contribution to Hilton since 2000 having played a pivotal role in the successful growth of the group. I look forward to working with him in his new role," Chief Executive Robert Watson said in a statement.
Last month, Hilton announced the resignation of Non-Executive Chairman David Naish. He will step down from the board on May 25 and will be replaced by Non-Executive Director Colin Smith.
