Fonterra, Sharesies join to make share trading easier
Fonterra is teaming up with wealth app provider Sharesies to make it easier for its farmer shareholders to trade co-op shares among themselves.
Waugh, a former National Foods chief executive, was elected by farmers this week; he replaces Taranaki's Blue Read, who failed in his re-election bid.
Waugh told Dairy News online that he was happy with the result.
"I put in a lot of effort in running my campaign and talking and listening to farmers," he says.
Waugh says his first aim was to get on the board.
"I have achieved that and the second aim is to quickly assimilate and become a productive member of the board."
Waugh farms in Te Awamutu, outside Hamilton.
