GUANGZHOU, China, March 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Sino Agro Food, Inc. or the "Company" (OTCQX: SIAF | OSE: SIAF-ME).
Sino Agro Food, Inc. ("SIAF") announces that Mr. Bertil Tiusanen is resigning his position of Chief Financial Officer and assuming the role of Senior Vice President of Business Development, New Ventures-Europe, effective February 29, 2016.
In his new capacity, Mr. Tiusanen will work to identify opportunities consistent with SIAF's global strategy, engaging with SIAF's global commercial leadership team, prioritizing current and new initiatives, and managing their launch in Europe. The aquaculture carve-out for listing in Norway is the first priority.
Mr. Tiusanen commented on the transition. "I am thrilled about the opportunity to accelerate SIAF's efforts to list an aquaculture subsidiary in Norway and to explore further European business ventures in the benefit of the Company and its shareholders. SIAF is best served with a CFO who can readily travel and work between the various subsidiaries in China on an ongoing basis. It is virtually impossible for someone to serve that role effectively along with the demands of this new position at the same time."
In the interim, Mr. Daniel Ritchey, a member of the SIAF Board of Directors and currently its Audit Committee has been offered and has accepted the position as acting CFO. Upon his appointment as acting CFO, Mr. Ritchey will resign as a member of the Audit Committee.
Mr. Ritchey's work on behalf of the Company since its inception will provide for a seamless transition with Company plans moving forward.
The Board will appoint a search committee to permanently fill the CFO position.
Mr. Solomon Lee, Chairman and CEO commented, "Our success is furthered by remaining flexible and utilizing our resources to best meet dynamic conditions and ambitions. This includes realigning the role and responsibility of individuals best suited to carry them forward.
Mr. Tiusanen is highly qualified to handle the challenges his new position brings and to help accomplish the Company's goals in Europe.
Mr. Ritchey will serve well as acting CFO bringing to it the same strengths and focus he has provided the Company over the last eight years.
I am very confident in the work these individuals will provide their respective roles as we continue to develop our operations and move forward with our expansion."
