“Swedish food production is more important than ever, both from a sustainability and national preparedness perspective. I look forward to continuing to develop our facilities together with our employees and strengthening our ability to deliver high-quality products produced in Sweden,” said Mattsson Skalshøi.
He succeeds Mathieu Le Duey, who is moving to a new position within the Lactalis Group as Industrial Director at Galbani in Italy.
