TOKYO -- Aeon, Japan's biggest retail group by revenue, will change leaders for the first time in 23 years, with a member of the founding family stepping aside as the company struggles to break into e-commerce.
Executive Vice President Akio Yoshida, 59, who has overseen store openings and heads the group's digital operations, will become president March 1 to replace Motoya Okada, Aeon said Friday.
