Protein Industries Canada is pleased to announce Tyler Groeneveld as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective Monday, October 27. Groeneveld previously served as Chair of Protein Industries Canada’s Board of Directors, bringing deep sector experience and organizational insight to the role.
The CEO search committee, chaired by Annette Revet, Vice-Chair of the Board, was supported by an independent executive search firm to ensure a transparent and objective process.
“It was important to the Board of Directors that we move forward with strong and stable leadership to maintain momentum and position Protein Industries Canada for continued success,” Chair of the Search Committee and Vice-Chair of the Board Annette Revet said. “Through the independent search process, it became clear that Tyler’s experience, leadership and vision make him the right choice to lead the organization. The Board is pleased to welcome Tyler as CEO.”
Groeneveld, who has resigned from the board of directors, has a long and distinguished career in Canada’s agriculture and food sector, serving with Corteva and legacy companies in various roles for more than 31 years. Most recently, he served as Commercial Lead for North America.
“I am honoured to take on the role of CEO of Protein Industries Canada,” Groeneveld said. “Having worked closely with the Board and leadership team, I’ve seen firsthand the organization’s impact in driving innovation and collaboration across Canada’s agriculture and food ecosystem. Together with our partners, we will continue to accelerate growth in ingredient manufacturing and food processing to create a $25-billion opportunity for Canada.”
