Westland Milk Products wishes to advise that Zhiqiang Li is the company’s acting Chief Executive Officer, effective, Friday, January 31 2025.

This follows the resignation of former CEO, Richard Wyeth. Mr Li will continue his role as Executive Director Yili Group Australia and NZ.

“Much has been achieved by the company during Richard’s management,’’ Mr Li said.  “Westland has enjoyed enormous success in important markets such as the US with Westgold Butter and our investment in production facilities for high-value ingredients places us in a strong position to continue this trend.’’
