@pietviljoen just listened to your take on @TigerBrands, as a former employee one has to look at the decision makers on the Dangote deal. Funke Igodharo, Peter Matlare, Thabi Segoale and others brought about a wave of destruction with their decision making. Tigers EE appointment
Of various executives even more damaging, the Millbake business destroyed by single individuals with selfish agendas, almost every long term tech supplier partnership destroyed and with it went Tigers edge over its competitors. Doyle may not be able to save this sinking ship...
Its Albany brand was untouchable when it came to innovation and quality, today it's a shadow of its former self. Talented experienced South Africans sidelined for African counterparts who had no loyalty towards a South African icon. Sad.
My entire team of R&D people who developed unique blue sky innovations for the Milling and Baking business forced out in favor of a centralized R&D who's sole aim was to climb the corporate executice ladder. JV dev with other SA giants CSIR, Sappi, etc all thrown down the bin.sad
