March 28 (Reuters) - Diageo (DGE.L) said on Tuesday that Chief Executive Ivan Menezes will retire and leave the Johnnie Walker whisky maker at the end of June, after nearly a decade at the helm. Menezes will be replaced as CEO by Chief Operating Officer (COO) Debra Crew, who will also join the board, Diageo said in a statement. Crew, who took on the role of COO last October, was previously president of Diageo North America and Global Supply from 2020, the company said. Menezes joined Diageo after the merger of Guinness plc and Grand Metropolitan plc in 1997 and has held a number of senior positions in the business, Diageo said.
