Direct-to-consumer food company Marley Spoon has appointed Mark Richardson as its new chief marketing and commercial officer in Australia. He will replace Kate Whitney from February 13.

With extensive experience in marketing and commercial roles across retail, finance, and tech, the company said Richardson would be an asset to the business and brand portfolio, which includes Marley Spoon, Dinnerly, Chefgood, and Bezzle.

Rolf Weber, CEO (Australia) and COO at Marley Spoon, said Richardson’s solid knowledge of the industry and his experience in creating disruptor brands will be invaluable as the company continues to enhance its offerings to customers.

In his most recent position as CMO at Aldi Australia for six years, Richardson was said to have played a key role in elevating the brand’s unique personality and prepositions.

“Moving into an adjacent category opens so many exciting opportunities,” added Richardson. 

“I’m dedicated and focused on exploring new commercial avenues and revenue streams and growing the Marley Spoon portfolio customer base.”
