West Country convenience chain L& F Jones has restructured its senior management team.
Chief executive of L& F Jones retail division Colin Murphy will step down in March.
His successor will be Simon Jones, director of retail.
Murphy will retain his position as chief executive of the wholesale operation.
He will assume an additional role as trading director for both divisions.
Murphy said: “Retail is going very well. However, it is the right time for me to focus more on wholesale, although I will still be involved in trading issues.”
