Village Farms Appoints Hamid Shekarchi as Interim Chief Financial Officer
Village Farms International announced the appointment of Hamid Shekarchi as Interim Chief Financial Officer, effective immediately. Shekarchi, an 18-year finance professional who previously served as CFO of the Company's Canadian Cannabis business, succeeds Steve Ruffini, who remains on the leadership team overseeing mergers and acquisitions.
Why it matters — A change in CFO leadership is a notable governance event for VFF investors to track, as the interim appointment brings internal financial experience while the prior CFO shifts to focus on M&A activities.
