“Chris is a brilliant and experienced marketer with the capacity to bring the kind of strategic leadership we need to realize our growth ambitions especially as we venture into new categories,” Bidco Africa CEO Vimal Shah said.
Diaz will lead the sales and marketing functions for the entire group including corporate communication, distribution and customer strategies across the consumer markets.
“I am delighted to join Bidco Africa at such an exciting time. I look forward to working with the team to deliver the company’s goals particularly the entry into new product lines,” said Diaz.
