Farmers will get their chance to hear from the head of meat processor Alliance Group when a roadshow visits the South next month.
Alliance Group chief executive Willie Wiese said the annual roadshow would include an update on the co-operative’s performance, a market outlook and key points in the co-operative’s refreshed five-year strategy.
He was looking forward to meeting farmers.
"The roadshow is a great opportunity for shareholders and suppliers to hear first-hand from directors and senior managers about what’s happening across the co-operative, our upcoming plans and to ask questions. While 2023 has been a challenging year for the co-operative and the wider red meat processing sector, we see opportunities ahead and look forward to sharing these. The roadshow provides an opportunity for other farmers who are interested in the co-operative to attend a meeting and learn more."
