”I am pleased to announce that Lars-Gunnar Edh will be taking over as Head of the Agriculture Sector, and it is a strength that we are able to fill such an important position with an internal candidate. Lars-Gunnar has been successful in developing and leading the work in our Energy Sector, and I am convinced that his leadership and broad experience, in combination with his strong commitment to Swedish agriculture, will be an asset also in the Agriculture Sector,” says Magnus Kagevik, Group President and CEO of Lantmännen.
Lars-Gunnar joined Lantmännen in 2019, when he was recruited as Managing Director for what was then Lantmännen Agroetanol, which is today part of Lantmännen Biorefineries. In 2022, he was appointed head of Lantmännen’s Energy Sector. Lars-Gunnar’s previous experiences include several international and leading positions in Assa Abloy, General Motors and Saab Automobile – among others.
“I am grateful for this opportunity to lead the Agriculture Sector, and to work even closer to Swedish agriculture and our members. I look forward to continue developing the business together with all colleagues in the sector, and to contribute to creating even more value on our members’ farms,” says Lars-Gunnar Edh.
“I would once again like to extend my warm thanks to Elisabeth for the important work she has done for Lantmännen and for our members over several years. She has led the development of the sector to the strong position we hold today in an excellent way. I wish Elisabeth all the best in the future – and a long and well-deserved retirement,” says Magnus Kagevik.
Lars-Gunnar Edh’s replacement as Head of Lantmännen’s Energy Sector will be presented shortly.
