Henchy faces huge task at troubled Dairygold

RUMOURS that Dairygold was under severe pressure in 2002 has been confirmed by the shocking results for the period.

It looks as if Jerry Henchy has a much tougher job on his hands than he ever imagined when he signed up for the job as chief executive.

It is probably going too far to say that Mr Henchy was handed a poisoned chalice, but judging from the reported dramatic drop in performance last year, one could be forgiven for thinking this was the case.
