Landus announced that Matt Carstens is stepping down as president and chief executive officer, effective last Friday. The Board of Directors extended its gratitude to Carstens for his leadership and commitment to innovation during his five-year tenure.
Landus Board Chairman Matt Chambers took on the role of acting CEO, effective Friday, with an interim CEO to be named within the next week.
“Matt has been a dedicated and forward-thinking leader, and we sincerely appreciate the many contributions he made during his tenure with Landus,” Chambers said. “The search for both an interim and permanent successor will prioritize identifying an individual with a deep understanding of the cooperative’s mission and the needs of its farmer-owners.”
