An announcement from ArborGen Holdings ( (RUBNF) ) is now available.
ArborGen Holdings has announced the resignation of its Brazil country manager, Adriano de Almeida, effective 4 May 2026, after a tenure that began in August 2023. During his time in the role, de Almeida helped drive growth in the Brazilian business, which now spans more than 900 employees across nine owned and leased nurseries with annual capacity exceeding 150 million seedlings from company-operated and partner facilities.
The company emphasized that its regional leadership bench remains strong, citing close collaboration and knowledge sharing between its U.S. and Brazilian operations. A formal search is being launched for a new country manager, and in the interim the Brazil business will be jointly overseen by Brazil finance manager Denis Sponchiato and CEO Justin Birch, a structure intended to ensure continuity in a key growth market for ArborGen’s forestry genetics business.
