Dow Jones11-25

By Adriano Marchese

Organigram Global has appointed James Yamanaka as its new chief executive officer, effective mid-January.

Yamanaka joins the Canadian cannabis producer from British American Tobacco where he served for over 20 years, most recently as global head of strategy.

In particular, Organigram said that Yamanaka brings with him extensive experience in strategy and general management across Europe and Asia.

He is set to begin on or around Jan. 15, and until then, board chairman, Peter Amirault, has been appointed to serve as executive chair on an interim basis effective Dec.1, to oversee day-to-day management of the company until Yamanaka is fully brought on board.
