Anthony Mandiwanza has retired as Dairibord Chief Executive Officer after serving for more than 34 years.

In a statement on Wednesday, Dairiboard Holdings said Mandiwanza was leaving the company as a vibrant and profitable commercial entity.

Mandiwanza headed Zimbabwe’s biggest dairy producer since 1996, just before it became the first state company to privatise and list on the ZSE. Mandiwanza joined the company in 1979.

The company said Mercy Ndoro would replace Mandiwanza effective October 1, 2022.
