Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller has appointed Justin Cook as CEO of Müller Yogurt & Desserts (MYD) in the UK and Ireland.

Cook brings more than 25 years of commercial, supply chain and general management experience at Kraft, Mondelez International and Jacobs Douwe Egberts (JDE).

For the past five years as managing director at JDE, he led the organization through transformation and growth following its creation in 2015 through the merger of D.E Master Blenders 1753 and Mondelez International coffee, which brought together brands like Kenco, Tassimo, Douwe Egberts and L’OR.

Cook said, “I’ve got no doubt that there are major opportunities to continue adding inspiration to loved products like Müller Corner and Müllerlight, whilst growing the brand into other parts of the category and beyond, and into new channels.”

He takes up his new role with Müller at the beginning of May, 2021.
