Tate & Lyle PLC (the "Company") is pleased to announce that Steve Foots will join the Board as a non-executive director and as a member of the Remuneration and Nominations Committees from the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting which is to be held on 24 July 2025 (the "AGM"), subject to his election at the AGM.

The Company also announces that Lars Frederiksen, an independent non-executive director, will retire from the Board from the conclusion of the AGM after serving for a full nine-year term. Lars has served on the Board since April 2016 and was a member of the Remuneration and Nominations Committees.

 

David Hearn, Chair of Tate & Lyle, said: "I am delighted that Steve has agreed to join the Board. His strategic and operational leadership experience, and deep understanding of the importance of customer focus and innovation, will be of significant benefit to the Board as we deliver on Tate & Lyle's growth agenda. I am also very appreciative of the significant contribution that Lars has made to the success of Tate & Lyle during his time with the business and we wish him well for the future."

About Tate & Lyle PLC:

 

Supported by our 165-year history of ingredient innovation, we partner with customers to provide consumers with healthier and tastier choices when they eat and drink. We are proud that millions of people around the world consume products containing our ingredients and solutions every day. Through our leading expertise in sweetening, mouthfeel and fortification, we develop ingredients and solutions which reduce sugar, calories and fat, add fibre and protein, and provide texture and stability to food and drink in categories including beverages, dairy, bakery, snacks, soups, sauces, and dressings.

 

Tate & Lyle recently acquired CP Kelco, a leading provider of pectin, speciality gums and other nature-based ingredients to create a leader in mouthfeel, significantly enhancing our solutions capabilities. Following this combination, we now have more than 5,000 employees working in around 75 locations in 39 countries, serving customers in more than 120 countries. Science, Solutions, Society is our brand promise and how we will achieve our purpose of Transforming Lives through the Science of Food. By living our purpose, we believe we can successfully grow our business and have a positive impact on society. We live our purpose in three ways, by supporting healthy living, building thriving communities and caring for our planet.

 

Tate & Lyle is listed on the London Stock Exchange under the symbol TATE.L. American Depositary Receipts trade under TATYY. For the year ended 31 March 2024, and on a pro forma basis which assumes for illustrative purposes that the combination with CP Kelco took place on 1 April 2023, revenue for the enlarged Tate & Lyle Group would have been £2.25 billion.
