Sir Stephen Tindall will step down from the board of The Warehouse, which he founded.
The Warehouse said Tindall, the company's biggest shareholder, and other long-standing director Keith Smith, are retiring by rotation and will not seek re-election at the group's annual meeting on November 27.
Tindall, who has been on a leave of absence from the board since 2017, and Smith, the group's deputy chair, will both step down as directors in November, after serving since 1982 and 1988 respectively.
