Board Changes
The Quarto Group Inc (LSE: QRT) today announces the following
changes to directors' responsibilities:
Polly Powell is appointed as Group Chief Executive Officer with
effect from 18 September 2020. Polly was elected to the Board on 10
February 2020 with responsibility as Chief Executive Officer of the
Company's UK operations. Polly takes over from C.K. Lau who remains
an Executive Director of the Company.
Chairman of the Board Andy Cumming comments:
"I am delighted that Polly has agreed to take on the position of
Group Chief Executive Officer. Polly has already made a significant
contribution to Quarto since joining at the beginning of the year
and I look forward to working closely with her as we continue to
build on the successful turnaround of the business."
Polly said: "Since joining Quarto, I have come to truly
appreciate the sheer scale and reach of its global sales - no other
like-minded company can match it. Under Ken Fund and C.K., the
Company has been rightly rewarded with its first Number 1 New York
Times bestseller with This Book Is Anti-Racist and the relentless
march of the Little People, Big Dreams series is a wonder to
behold. I look forward to working with Ken and doing justice to the
Board's appointment of me as C.K.'s successor."
