Medical Australia welcomes Gary Lewis as chairman to guide growth

Medical Australia (ASX: MLA) has appointed former managing director Gary Lewis as non-executive chairman.

Lewis was managing director of Medical Australia for three years and was a director for four years, and has been instrumental in guiding the management team on the company’s growth strategy and internal expansion.

In his time as managing director of Medical Australia, Lewis was responsible for building a successful global supply chain which is the basis of the company’s international operations.

Managing director Mark Donnison said Lewis’ experience would bolster the existing board.

“His understanding of the business and its growth strategy, and his contacts in the Australian and international capital markets, give us every confidence that we have the right board in place to guide our future growth.

Both Lewis and Donnison are top three shareholders in Medical Australia.
