On Wednesday 24 September, the Laurent-Perrier Supervisory Board chaired by Maurice de Kervenoael agreed to appoint Stéphane Dalyac Chairman of Laurent-Perrier's Management Board. He takes over from Michel Boulaire, who has held the position since May 2010.
After starting out with PAI Partners, one of Europe's leading venture capital firms, Stéphane Dalyac joined the Danone Group in 1992, where he held a number of marketing and sales positions, in the United Kingdom in particular. He subsequently moved to the Yoplait Group in 2002, where he was appointed Managing Director, Europe, in 2011.
Stéphane Dalyac, 51, is an agricultural scientist who graduated from the Institut National Agronomique Paris-Grignon and the Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris ("Sciences-Po"). He also holds a DEA post-graduate diploma in financial mathematics from Paris Dauphine University.
The Supervisory Board expresses its warmest thanks to Michel Boulaire for his dedication to the Group which, over the past four years, has accelerated its rate of international expansion and won market share in the leading export markets despite the difficult economic environment. During this period, the Group has also significantly bolstered its financial strength, enabling it to continue investing for the future.
Leveraging his experience as a Managing Director in an international group, Stéphane Dalyac will be tasked with accelerating growth at Laurent-Perrier to take the Group to a new level in the value strategy it has resolutely pursued for many years.
