Tate & Lyle said Monday that Gerry Murphy will step down as chairman to take up the position at Tesco on Sept. 1, with Warren Tucker appointed interim chairman from that date.

The FTSE 250 provider of food-and-beverage ingredients said the board has started the process to appoint Murphy's successor.

The company said Tucker is currently chairman of the audit committee and will remain in this role during the interim period.
