Godiva Chocolatier international travel-retail manager Gerry Murray is to leave the company at the end of March. He is to join luggage specialist Samsonite as travel-retail director, a new post within the company.

Murray said: "I have enjoyed my time with Godiva enormously and have greatly appreciated the opportunity to work with a great team on a fantastic brand. I have learnt a huge amount and am looking forward to using that experience in my new role."

Until a full-time replacement is announced Murray's responsibilities at Godiva will be assumed by business director Sylvie Fiers, who paid tribute to his contribution. "All of us at Godiva will miss Gerry. He has done great work for the company and we wish him much success in his new position."
