Treatt announced that Daemmon Reeve has informed the Board of his intention to retire from his role as a director of the Company. Daemmon's retirement comes after 32 years with Treatt, the last 11 years as CEO. He has agreed with the Board that he will step down from his role on 31 December 2023 and will step down immediately from Treatt's Nomination Committee.

The Board regularly reviews succession planning and has begun the process to appoint a new CEO. Until a new CEO is appointed, Ryan Govender, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, will be appointed as Interim CEO from 1 January 2024. Building on his international and diverse experience from his previous roles, most recently within Associated British Foods, Ryan has a strong understanding of the business and has played a key role as part of the Treatt team in formulating an ambitious strategy for the future of the business.
