The Warehouse taps Foodstuffs exec for new digital role
The Warehouse Group has announced that former Foodstuffs executive, Shayne Tong, will step into the newly created role of chief digital officer of the group from August 28.
“We’re pleased to welcome Shayne to the team. He brings deep digital strategy and transformation leadership, both essential skills we require to unlock value from our operating model,” said Mark Stirton, the Warehouse’s incoming CEO.
Before being appointed to the CDO role at Foodstuffs South Island in 2022, Tong held senior technology leadership roles at several companies and international banks, including Auckland District Health Board, Genesis Energy, ANZ Bank, Goldman Sachs, and Barclays Capital.
Tong’s challenge will be to drive the group’s digital transformation strategy through elevating technology investments and lowering operating costs.
Last year, the Warehouse confirmed it would shut down TheMarket.com.
