LONDON (Alliance News) - Wm Morrison Supermarkets PLC is set to name David Potts as its new chief executive as early as Wednesday, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday.
Potts, the former head of Tesco PLC's business in the UK, will replace Dalton Philips, who was ousted in January after nearly five years in the role.
Potts was cited as the frontrunner for the role last week and confirmation of his appointment is expected on Wednesday or Thursday, the FT said, citing people familiar with the situation.
