Mondelez International Inc. made an announcement recently regarding its appointment of a new Board of Directors member. The maker of the Oreo and Cadbury chocolate line said that Ann Mukherjee, the chief executive officer and chairwoman of Pernod Ricard North America, has been appointed, effective Jan. 1, 2023.
In a report, it was said that Mukherjee is the chief at the said French liqueur company known for its wine and spirits since December 2019. Before this, she worked at the S.C. Johnson & Son consumer product manufacturer as the global chief commercial officer and global chief marketing officer.
She also held a president position at PepsiCo’s global snacks group unit. At this company, she also once served as chief marketing officer and senior vice president. Now, her appointment at Mondelez International’s Board of Directors effectively increased the number to a total of 11 members.
“We welcome Ann to our Board and look forward to benefitting from her strong track record in leading and advising multinational consumer packaged goods companies,” Mondelez International’s chief executive officer and chairman, Dirk Van de Put, said in a press release. “Her expertise in consumer insights, commercial execution, and brand innovation will provide important perspective to our Board and the team as we continue advancing our Vision 2030 strategy as a global snacking leader.”
Meanwhile, Market Watch reported that shares of Mondelez International increased on Tuesday by 0.33% and recorded a price of $67.60. This growth is said to be proof that this is an all-around great trading session for the company and the stock market.
This was also the second consecutive day of gains for the stocks, and Mondelez International also closed $1.87 short of its 52-week high at $69.47, which it attained earlier this year. Finally, the stock results outdid some of its rivals, such as Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Kraft Heinz Co.
