ASX-listed agribusiness developer, Alterra Ltd, has elevated Non-Executive Director John McGlue to the Chairman's role as the company advances towards completing feasibility studies on its Carpenters, 300-hectare avocado development in Pemberton. McGlue replaces well known farmer, Trevor Stoney, who served as Chairman from 2012 but remains on the Board as a Non-Executive Director as the company moves forwards with its new business model.

Alterra has appointed John McGlue to its advisory board as it gears up to enter the potentially lucrative agricultural sector with an initial focus on the avocado market. McGlue brings over 30 years of experience in corporate communications and financial markets to Alterra and he is the founder and Principal of corporate advisory firm, Castle Gates Australia. Alterra provides a co-investment model as a potential vehicle for farmers to diversify their conventional bank funding models.
