Rob Walton, son of Walmart founder Sam Walton, will retire from the board at the end of his current term, the company said in a proxy filing. Chipotle CEO Brian Niccol will take his place, the company added. Rob Walton started working at the company in 1969 across various roles in senior management.
The CEO is routinely among the highest-paid CEOs in retail.
(Reuters) -Walmart said on Thursday that Rob Walton, the longest serving member on its board and eldest son of founder Sam Walton, would retire from his position of the big-box retailer at the end of his term on June 5. Walton served as the company's chairman of the board of directors after his father died in 1992 and held the post until June 2015. Walmart also disclosed seven shareholder proposals in the regulatory filing, including some repeated calls for conducting an independent racial equity audit and human rights impact assessment in its supply chain.
