ForFarmers N.V., a leading player in the European animal feed market, has announced a significant change in its Supervisory Board. Jan van Nieuwenhuizen, the current chairman, has decided not to seek reappointment for a second term, effective from the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 17 April 2025. This decision comes as the company has made great progress in implementing its Strategy 2025 and is well-positioned to contribute to a future-proof and sustainable agricultural sector.

Jan van Nieuwenhuizen, who joined the Supervisory Board in 2021, has played a crucial role in the company's strategic direction, contributing to various strategic issues, the sustainability strategy, the development of the organization, and the formation of the leadership team. His extensive international management experience, including serving as a member of the management board of Rabobank Group, has been invaluable to ForFarmers' mission of "For the Future of Farming."

The Supervisory Board will now consider the further formation and composition of the board, as well as the possibility of nominating a new chairman from among its members. The recruitment of a new Supervisory Board member will also be started, ensuring that the board maintains a balance of skills, experience, and knowledge to continue its strategic direction and decision-making processes without significant disruption.

Pieter Wolleswinkel, CEO of ForFarmers, expressed his gratitude for Jan van Nieuwenhuizen's commitment and positive cooperation, stating that the company is very grateful for his contributions to the mission and strategy of ForFarmers. The Supervisory Board and Executive Board regret that Jan van Nieuwenhuizen is not available for a new term and will continue to work together to ensure a smooth transition and the company's continued success.



In conclusion, the departure of Jan van Nieuwenhuizen from the ForFarmers Supervisory Board marks a new chapter in the company's governance and strategic direction. With his extensive international experience and passion for sustainability, van Nieuwenhuizen has made a significant impact on the company's mission and strategy. As ForFarmers looks to the future, the Supervisory Board will continue to work together to ensure the company's long-term success and sustainability, contributing to the future of farming and the agricultural sector.
