BioMar appoints new boss in Ecuador
FEED group BioMar has appointed a new general manager at its recent acquisition in Ecuador, Alimentsa.
Current vice-president of the firm Danny Velez will take over from Roberto Boloña, who has been in the post for 25 years.
BioMar acquired 70 per cent of the shares in shrimp feed producer Alimentsa in the summer, signalling the Danish group’s expansion into this market.
Velez has been one of the driving forces behind Alimentsa’s growth as a provider of high performance diets and technical services and training. With 25 years in the firm, he has headed daily operations and been in close contact with customers as well as suppliers.
Boloña hands over a strong company, having supported the smooth acquisition process, positioning BioMar Group among the leading shrimp feed producers in Latin America.
