Anglia Business Solutions has named Robert Frost as its new group chief operating officer.
Frost has been on the board of directors for 12 years and previously held the positions of finance director and commercial director.
He will take on the new role immediately following the death of the company's founder David Hurley who passed away following a short illness, aged 64.
Hurley was behind the development of the company's LINKFresh solution.
Speaking about the appointment, Frost said: “With the full support of my fellow Directors, I am delighted to take up this position at such an exciting time for the business.
“In Europe we are committed to support and expand our Microsoft Dynamics based LINKFresh solution in the fresh food marketplace and also to push forward to take up the emerging opportunities for LINKFresh in the wider food supply chain.
“We intend to continue investing heavily in all of Microsoft’s technology platforms, thus enabling us to reach all companies, large and small, within our chosen market sector. We will be announcing, very soon, significant steps towards this goal.”
Anglia is continuing its strategy to drive the LINKFresh solution into international markets such as the USA and Canada, where it already has a number of clients.
