At their AGM which was held on Friday 24th July Limerick Market Trustees appointed Mícheál Ó Laoide of Mercury Consulting as Chairman, and Órlaith Borthwick of Limerick Chamber, as the incoming secretary.
The Trustees thanked outgoing Chairman Michael Sheehan for his contribution over the past four years. The Trustees also extended unanimous appreciation to David O’Brien, the outgoing Secretary, who earlier in the year resigned from his role as Manager of the Milk Market.
Speaking on his appointment Chairman Ó Laoide said “I look forward to the year ahead in my role as Chairman and want to thank my fellow Trustees for electing me. There is an energy and enthusiasm among the Trustees about the future of market operations in Limerick. With the support of my fellow Trustees I believe we can ensure that markets in Limerick continue on the path of positive growth in a manner that will ensure a sustainable future.
The Milk Market is a unique asset for this region and with Fresh Fridays now operating until 7pm, the Saturday market continuing to thrive and activity on Sundays growing, working in partnership with stakeholders I believe there is a bright future ahead. “ concluded Mr. Ó Laoide.
