From Patrick on yahoo:


Bobby Kwon brings over 25 years of international experience in the consumer-packaged goods, retail and pharmaceutical industries; holding senior roles in finance, strategic planning, and operations working in Canada, U.S., the Netherlands, and U.K. Most recently, Bobby served as the Senior Vice President of George Weston Ltd. (Weston Group), Canada’s largest food and drug retail business. He was a trusted and strategic advisor to Weston Group’s owner and Executive Chairman on key activities and transformational transactions including the $12 billion acquisition of Shoppers Drug Mart. Prior to Weston Group, Bobby held a number of senior finance and corporate roles at Unilever including Chief Financial Officer, Canada. During his tenure at Unilever, Bobby co-led enterprise strategic planning across global business units and was an instrumental member closely involved in various corporate development transactions including Unilever’s $4 billion acquisition of Alberto Culver, a large global hair and skin products manufacturer, and a partnership between PepsiCo and Lipton Ready to Drink Tea, owned by Unilever. Additionally, Bobby was a core member of “One Unilever”, a global transformation initiative focused on unlocking $1 billion in savings. Previously, Bobby was Director of Finance at Janssen-Ortho Inc. partnering with operations and corporate development functions.


Just to add so nobody has further paranoia: Chris Hobbs will remain on the board of directors and will not be departing before the Q3 financials.
