Dutchman takes over at British institutionWednesday 18 November 2009 Former Heineken executive Marc Bolland has been appointed new chief executive of British high street chain Marks and Spencer. Bolland left Heineken after a 20 year career in 2006 to take over the top job at British supermarket chain Morrisons. At M&S, he replaces Stuart Rose, who has been under pressure from institutional investors because he holds the roles of both chairman and chief executive, the Financial Times said. Bolland, 50, was born in Apeldoorn and joined Heineken as a graduate trainee, rising to chief operating officer. © DutchNews.nl
Quite agree Beryl. Perhaps we should get up a petition By Shirley | November 18, 2009 3:38 PM Yes, congratulations Mr. Bolland. It is not just the international commmuity, but the Dutch too, who loved M & S when it was here, and were sad to see it close BRING IT BACK TO THE HAAGUE! THANKS. By Sally Valaentine | November 18, 2009 4:37 PM I agree, we should have Marks and Spencers in the Netherlands, what about a food hall in Eindhoven, Please! By Lin Pender | November 18, 2009 5:07 PM Congratulations Mr Bolland! Now please bring back Marks and Spencer back to the Netherlands! would be great even if its only the food hall! By Alison | November 18, 2009 9:05 PM Someone told me there used to be an M&S in Amsterdam where there now stands a Zara? By Lulu | November 18, 2009 10:21 PM Add me to the list of petitioners too, especially their yummy food. Albert Heijn's TV dinners just don't compare and their wide range of affordable hosiery and underwear are also clearwinners for me. By Angeli Gunasingham | November 18, 2009 10:51 PM As a frequent visitor to the Netherlands I would be delighted if M&S returned. By Kate Rice | November 19, 2009 10:09 AM
