Kinross - Dawson International chief
executive Andy Bartmess is leaving his post by "mutual agreement",
amid concerns over growing losses and a large pension deficit.
In August, the group reported that its
first-half losses climbed to ?352,000 for the six months to July on a 4% dip in
turnover to ?2.74 million.
The group, which has also been hurt by
higher cotton and cashmere prices, said Bartmess had resigned from the board
with immediate effect and would leave the company at the end of this month.
