Remmelt Jongkind has been promoted to general manager of Napolina Europe in an internal restructure.
Jongkind said the reorganisation precedes a high profile campaign to develop the brand which is due to kick off in the first quarter of 2003.
He replaces Peter Berry, who was promoted to sales director for Napolina Europe five months ago. Jongkind said: "I will be responsible for the ongoing investment in and development of Napolina brands as well as strategic planning, buying and logistics.
Now based in Liverpool, Jongkind has moved from Napolina's European office in Holland. He worked there as marketing manager for the brand, responsible for European development outside the UK and Ireland.
"It is a strong brand, mainly focused on canned tomatoes, but we're developing into other areas such as sauces, oils and pasta.We are soon to introduce several npds."
