Appointment of Non-Executive Director

 

Powder Monkey Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Andy Higginson
as Non-Executive Director with immediate effect. Andy brings over 40 years of
extensive experience in retail, consumer markets, finance, and strategy. He
spent 15 years as an Executive Director at Tesco plc, serving as Group Finance
Director and Chief Executive of Retailing Services during a period of
significant international growth. He has held numerous high-profile roles
including Chairman of JD Sports Fashion plc, William Morrison Supermarkets plc
for 6 years and N Brown Group, as well as Non-Executive Director positions at
leading consumer and financial services businesses. His deep expertise in
scaling operations, corporate governance, and international expansion will be
invaluable as Powder Monkey Group continues to grow its brewing, beverage and
hospitality portfolio globally.

 

Commenting on the appointment, Mike McGeever, Chairman said: "We are delighted
to welcome Andy to the Board. His strategic insight and proven track record
will strongly support our ambitious growth plans in the ever broadening
portfolio of Powder Monkey Group".

 

Andy Higginson added "I've been watching Powder Monkey's growth over the last
3 years and the strategy has been impressive despite the markets. I have made
a significant financial investment into this business as I can see where this
team can go with it."

 

In 2025 alone Powder Monkey acquired seven additional breweries and this
latest appointment will support the business as it broadens its wholesale
customer base. The appointment comes ahead of a new Share Subscription to be
launched in June 2026 in line with JP Jenkins' secondary share trading
platform.

 

2026 has most recently seen the opening of an impressive significant new
brewing capacity in the rapidly growing South West of Sydney.

 

Meaningful discussions continue with Asian, US and European organisations
seeking alignments.

 

The indicative pricing for the ordinary shares as well as the transaction
history, will be available on the JP Jenkins website at
