The Fonterra Shareholders Council is welcoming the appointment of John Wilson as the chairman elect of the Fonterra board.

Shareholders Council chairman Ian Brown congratulated Wilson on his appointment.

"As a former Shareholders Council chair, John is in a unique position to understand farmers' interests and concerns and balance these against the needs of the business.

"The Council will continue to work towards solidifying a respectful working relationship with John and the board," he says.

Wilson takes over from Henry van der Heyden who steps down at the co-op's annual meeting in December.
