After 4 years at the head of Bel France, Béatrice de Noray has been promoted to Chief Growth Officer and joins the company’s Executive Committee. In her new role, she will bring to all the Group’s markets her strong leadership skills, her expertise in reconciling consumer expectations and market management challenges, and her experience in deploying Bel’s profitable and responsible growth model.

On 1 September 2023, Béatrice de Noray will become Bel’s Chief Growth Officer. In this role, she will be responsible for structuring and deploying the Group’s strategic growth levers, including accelerating innovation and partnerships to shape the future of food, strengthening a marketing approach that puts the consumer at the heart and makes brands purposeful, and developing new distribution channels. In her new role, Béatrice de Noray will aim to strengthen the response to the short- and long-term challenges facing the Group, its markets, and its brands, so that it can offer products and services that are as close as possible to the needs and expectations of its consumers around the world.

In appointing Béatrice de Noray to the Bel Group Executive Committee, CEO Cécile Béliot has chosen an expert who has risen to the challenges of transforming a key market for Bel and has also confirmed the parity of the Group’s Executive Committee. Béatrice de Noray joins an Executive Committee pursuing the Bel Group’s long-term strategy of becoming the benchmark for healthy portions of food (dairy, fruit and plant-based), for to all.

Cécile Béliot, CEO of Bel, “Béatrice de Noray has demonstrated her strong leadership skills, strengthened Bel’s position as a key player in the food industry within the French ecosystem, and made Bel France a pioneering subsidiary embodying the Group’s sustainable growth strategy. I am convinced that her expertise and experience will be key to continuing our transformation towards a responsible and profitable growth model. I renew my confidence in her and wish her every success.”

Béatrice de Noray, Chief Growth Officer of Bel, “As Chief Growth Officer, I will be working with my teams to accelerate and amplify the deployment of our growth levers by strengthening the link between our brands, our capacity for innovation and our markets, to better serve our consumers’ expectations throughout the world. I would like to thank Cécile Béliot for her trust in me, and I am fully committed to working with the Executive Committee to ensure the Group’s success as a leader in the food transition.”

Béatrice de Noray’s replacement as General Manager of Bel France will be announced shortly.

Béatrice de Noray joined the Bel Group in 2019 as General Manager of Bel France, the Group’s structuring market and historical birthplace, where she has strengthened both its growth and its positioning as a key player in the food industry with the entire ecosystem (upstream dairy, distributors, institutional players).
