UK-based processor Hilton Seafood appointed Chris Hayes as its new managing director, a source at the company confirmed to IntraFish.
Hayes represents the sixth new MD for Hilton Seafood in less than three years, replacing outgoing Andre van der Padt, the former CEO of Dutch Seafood Company, who was appointed in May.
The Dutch Seafood Company, which does business under the Foppen name, was acquired by Hilton in December last year.
Van der Padt will be returning to Foppen, where he will continue to serve as CEO, sources confirmed.
