LARMER INDUCTED INTO THE CANADIAN AGRICULTURAL HALL OF FAME
Semex proudly announces that former CEO Paul Larmer will be inducted into the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame.
"Paul's contribution to Canadian agriculture is unparalleled," says Semex Director Global Marketing Joan Lau. "He has dedicated his life to Canadian producers, beginning at the grassroots level and rising to CEO of Semex. Paul's goal has always been to showcase our genetics to the world, as he says, 'punching above our weight.' Undoubtedly, his leadership solidified Canadian genetics and Semex's position as a global leader."
The official announcement reads, "Paul Larmer has dedicated his professional life to improving cattle genetics and establishing Canada as a global leader. From his early days as a dairy cattle sire analyst, to overseeing the formation of the Semex Alliance and 17 years at the helm as CEO, Paul’s lifetime leadership and vision have made a profound impact on the success of the Canadian, farmer-owned companies in the global cattle breeding improvement industry. A mentor to many, Paul seamlessly led Semex through a transition from a Canadian company exporting Canadian genetics to an international company providing global solutions in cattle genetics. Paul Larmer lives in Guelph, ON, and was nominated by Semex."
Paul will be formally inducted into the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame on Saturday, November 2, 2024, at the Liberty Grand in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
