His resignation will see the company retire the role and replace it with a chief supply chain officer to bring operations and manufacturing under one leadership role.

A2 Milk managing director and CEO David Bortolussi said Khan had navigated operations through “extraordinary times” and had played an important role in the company’s growth.
