He holds a Business degree from the Chisholm Institute of Technology and an MBA from the University of Melbourne. He has also completed the Monash Mt Eliza Business Development course and is a graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.


He was previously Chief Executive Officer of BevChain (the Linfox - Lion Nathan joint venture) and Vice President of Linfox's FMCG division.

"With the gradual transition of Bruce Scott to focus on his many other interests it was important to ensure we found a business leader who understands and can continue to foster the culture and growth of the Scott's business," said Mr Howson.


"We believe Andrew will provide great leadership given his vast experience and achievements across the transport and logistics sector and the work he has done recently in his business development role."
