Kepak Group has appointed Brian Tormey as CEO of Kepak’s Meat Division Ireland.
Tormey will step into the role from his previous position as chief operating officer, which he has held since 2018.
He has been with Kepak since 2007 and has over 25 years’ experience working in the meat industry. In addition to the role of chief operating officer, Tormey has held a number of other senior positions at Kepak, including director of operations and head of project management.
Kepak said Tormey’s knowledge of meat craftmanship began at a young age having grown up working in his family butcher shops in Westmeath, Offaly and Galway.
Commenting on the appointment, Kepak Group CEO, Simon Walker, said: “We are delighted to see Brian step into his new role as CEO of Kepak’s Meat Division Ireland. Having led project management and operations at Kepak over many years, this is a natural evolution of Brian’s long tenure with the business.
“His deep understanding of the organisation and wider industry means that he is uniquely placed to lead the strategic direction of our meat division in Ireland, with a focus on performance and business development.”
Newly appointed CEO of Kepak’s Meat Division Ireland, Brian Tormey, said: “I’m very pleased to take on this new role at what is an exciting time for Kepak. We already have a very strong platform for growth within the business and I am looking forward to building on that alongside our dedicated team.”
