“Maury also stepped up to work closely on the WPC80 precautionary recall as spokesperson and lead of our response. More recently, Maury led our response to the 1080 contamination threat.

“I will miss Maury’s support which has been invaluable to me, and on behalf of Fonterra, I wish Maury all the very best for the future.
