Cincinnati, OH -- Chemlock Nutrition, a leading developer of advanced mineral and vitamin technologies for animal nutrition, announced the appointment of Simon Walley as chief executive officer.
Walley brings more than 25 years of global experience across the human and animal nutrition sectors, having held senior leadership and board roles at Fonterra, Danisco Animal Nutrition (now IFF) and Biomin (now dsm-firmenich) and most recently served as president of ADM Animal Nutrition North America.
"I'm excited to join a company with extraordinary momentum, a culture that makes everything feel solvable and that already matches my own philosophy of prioritizing being useful to the customer," said Walley. "Chemlock's trajectory is extraordinary. The team has developed a portfolio of truly unique solutions, has an even stronger pipeline, and the opportunity ahead for global expansion is tremendous. I'm looking forward to helping scale this platform and deepen the positive impact Chemlock's chemistry-first approach can have for producers around the world."
Chemlock Nutrition co-founders Arun Mehan and Kris Mehan will remain integrally involved in day-to-day operations. Arun will serve as chairman, and Kris will serve as chief strategy officer and vice chair.
"Our dream has always been to leverage unique chemistry from other sectors to help accelerate animal agriculture's potential. Bringing in a CEO of Simon's caliber helps us bring that dream to more species, more geographies and more customers than ever before," said Kris Mehan.
