MR Enzo Allara AM has resigned as chairman of the Australian Pork Limited Board, effective June 30, 2018.
Mr Allara has been in- volved with the food and grocery industries in Aus- tralia and internationally for over 40 years, know- ledge he has used to help guide the Australian pork industry through both good and bad times over his 13-year stewardship.
Mr Allara, who has held the specialist director po- sition since 2004, advised APL Board directors of his resignation at the June Board meeting, to focus on other pursuits.
His resignation is part of a strategic and planned Board succession pro- cess and he insists proper Board succession is part of good corporate govern- ance and believes he has left the Board in capable hands.
“It is a challenging time,” Mr Allara said.
“With change comes new perspectives and ideas.
“It is important that as an industry we continue to move forward and we
are very fortunate to have very skilled individuals willing to come on board.
“I’m happy to still be around such a great in- dustry, through my role as chairman of Sunpork Pty Limited.”
APL CEO Mr Andrew Spencer said Enzo’s con- tribution to the Australia pork industry has been phenomenal.
“His commitment to our producers is to be com- mended and his patience and wisdom on the Board will be missed as we enter this new era.”
The Board has appointed Mr David Lock to fill the vacancy arising from Mr Allara’s resignation, with the Board also appointing Mr Lock as chairman.
Mr Lock’s appointment as director and chair is to be ratified at the indus- try’s general meeting in November 2018.
Mr Lock is currently chairman of Mareterram Limited and deputy chair- man of the Water Corpo- ration as well as having over 13 years’ experience in executive roles in large, diverse agribusinesses.
