Independent forecourt operator Motor Fuel Group (MFG) has a new Retail Director in the shape of former Tesco boss Richard Baker (pictured).
Following a 37-year stint at the mult, which saw him rise from part-timer to oversee its 800 UK superstores, Baker has spent the last year in the US working on a business transformation project for pharmacy giant Walgreens.
MFG is looking to strengthen its retail offering and William Bannister, the Group’s CEO, views Baker as a key appointment. “In this new role Richard will be responsible for the retail relationships with suppliers and driving the performance of sites while refining our retail, customer service and product proposition.”
