News of a Chief transition was first heard earlier this month. Retail Business Services, a company under the Ahold Delhaize USA umbrella, saw Rom Kosla leave his position with grocery tech. News of his replacement has not yet been released by the company.
The former Executive Vice President, IT, and Chief Information Officer will be taking up his new CIO post with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE).
Kosla led the IT transformation across the Ahold Delhaize USA companies, a press release noted, improving the technical and engineering capabilities within the IT organization while evolving the organization to deliver value faster for the company. This work included enabling enterprise-wide technologies to support U.S.-based associates and migrating key digital capabilities to the cloud to enable e-commerce customer expansion as part of Ahold Delhaize USA’s omnichannel growth ambition.
Before serving with Retail Business Services, Kosla was the Senior Vice President and CIO of Corporate and Enterprise Solutions at PepsiCo, and has served in a number of roles at Deloitte and Nestle.
As Rom Kosla steps into this new role, we wish him all the best. Deli Market News will continue to keep an eye on the wire for news of his replacement.
