Bringing extensive experience in the fresh produce and related industries, George Haggar will take over as CEO at Nutrano Produce Group in the new year.

Peter McGregor, who is currently acting CEO, will aid in the leadership transition, then remain a board member following Haggar’s commencement.

Haggar has been working closely with McGregor as an advisor to the Nutrano board since July this year, giving him a solid understanding of the business coming in.

“George’s appointment is a great endorsement of the Nutrano business, the quality of our people, our farms and the opportunities we have to continue to grow,” said McGregor. “I am confident that under his leadership Nutrano will continue to grow and provide exciting opportunities for our employees, customers and grower partners.”

Haggar has formerly held roles at senior executive leadership level for Murray River Organics, Costa Group, and Visy.
