Cider and beer producer C&C Group has appointed Brian Calder to the post of chief executive of Tennent Caledonian Breweries. Brian Calder will move into the role from his current position as managing director of Wallaces TCB, which was formed following C&C Group’s full acquisition of the Wallaces Express business earlier this month.

He will take over the newly enlarged Scottish business, bringing a wealth of skills and experience in the multi-beverage drinks industry to the job.

John Gilligan, managing director for Tennent Caledonian Breweries has indicated a desire to wind down over the next period of time and will work collaboratively with Brian until this critical transition period is complete.
