Meade Potato Company awarded title for best agri-business in Ireland
Since this time last year, the company’s workforce has grown from 150 to 200 employees due to increased business. Based in Lobinstown, Navan, Co Meath, Meade anticipates a further 50 people will be employed indirectly to carry out expansion plans and sustainability initiatives.
Meade commercial director Philip Meade Jr said: “Our growth as a company would not have been possible without the hard work of our dedicated team of employees and fellow growers. The weather made it a truly testing past year for farmers, but the skill and tenacity demonstrated in dealing with it has been a credit to Irish agriculture.”
