Premier Foods Promotes Yilmaz Erceyes to CMO

As reported by Campaign, Premier Foods' Yilmaz Erceyes has been promoted to the newly-created role of Chief Marketing Officer.

A senior marketing professional, Yilmaz began his career with Procter & Gamble. Placed into Premier Foods by Hunter-Miller in 2015 as Category Marketing Director, Yilmaz was made Marketing Director for the UK Business Unit only last year.

His latest promotion comes as Premier reported strong results in the March-September period this year, with revenues and operating profit rising 2.4% and 26.9% respectively. Yilmaz has been instrumental to this success, focusing the business' core strategy on innovation and brand-building.

We wish him the best of luck in his new role.
