BioMar has appointed the experienced animal nutrition and aquaculture profile Cedric van den Bossche as vice president for the Asia division.
As VP for Asia, Van den Bossche will be working out of China, developing the product portfolio and the market strategies for the Asian markets together with the local teams.
Furthermore, he will take lead looking into new opportunities for developing BioMar across Asia.
“We have during the last years built a solid position in the Chinese market, created a strong global market position within the shrimp feed segment, and started the penetration of the Vietnamese market,” said Carlos Diaz, CEO, BioMar Group.
”There is huge potential for further growth in Asia and I am sure Cedric is bringing both the right entrepreneurial spirit and the solid management experience we need to accelerate the further growth in the region.”
