Chilean salmon farmer Multiexport named Martin Hepp as the company's new farming division manager. He replaces Pedro Courard, who is taking on a new role at Chilean salmon farmer Cermaq after three years with Multiexport.

Hepp, who has eight years of experience within the company in financial and business management departments, will take over his new role in August.

"I am very grateful to have been chosen to lead this division and at the same time very motivated by the challenges it represents," Hepp said.
