“Flavio has done an outstanding job leading the finance team in Brazil,” Rob Tanksley, senior vice president of Tyson’s Latin America business unit, said in a press release. “I’m certain he’ll do a great job continuing to grow the business by making us a stronger player in the poultry industry there. 

According to the release, Malnarcic joined Tyson do Brasil in 2010 as director of finance and accounting.

Tyson do Brasil produces a wide variety of chicken products, including frozen, fresh and marinated cuts.
