LONDON (Alliance News) - The former chief executive of Weetabix Ltd has been picked as a candidate to be the new CEO at Premier Foods PLC, Sky News reported on Saturday.
Giles Turrell, who spent six years with cereal maker Weetabix before it was sold, is "is one of several people who have been identified as a potential successor", according to Sky.
Turrell also is the former president of Kimberly-Clark Corp's European consumer business, which makes Kleenex tissues.
"Turrell is not yet thought to be at the stage of being a preferred candidate for the Premier Foods stage, which appears to be in no rush to appoint a new boss," Sky added.
