The governing body of IFFO RS, the global standard for the responsible supply of Marine Ingredients, is appointing Libby Woodhatch as its executive president.

Woodhatch is stepping down as head of advocacy for UK seafood trade group Seafish to replace Andrew Jackson, who is retiring after nine years at the helm of IFFO RS.

“I am thrilled to be offered this role, Andy is leaving behind a great legacy and I look forward to working with the Governing Body and team at IFFO RS to establish the standard further,” said Woodhatch.
