The UK Kingfisher group of companies has created a new directorship in conjunction with its recently launched “Net Positive” strategy. Nick Folland has taken up the position of Group Corporate Affairs Director: Net Positive. He was previously Kingfisher’s Legal and Corporate Responsibility Director and on the board of B&Q, a subsidiary company. The Net Positive initiative is a commitment for 10 to 20 years that is intended to underline the group’s sense of corporate responsibility. The aim is to no longer strive for neutrality but to make a positive contribution to the future of the world.
