Bacardi executive takes up the reins at Scottish whisky to feed protein player Former Bacardi UK operations director Iain Lochhead has been appointed chief executive of Horizon Proteins, a biotech that transforms underused co-products from whisky distillation into nutrients for the aqua and animal feed industries. In a leadership shuffle at the Edinburgh-based biotech, Nik Willoughby, cofounder of the company, exits the role of chief executive to take on the position of chief technology officer. Horizon Proteins, a spin-out company from the Heriot-Watt University, that emerged in 2014, has patented technology that allows the recovery of protein from pot ale, the liquid remaining after the first distillation. The biotech’s main product has been tested in salmon and cleared for inclusion in commercial salmon feed.
