Seamus Crawford has resigned his position from the board of Kerry Co-op, I’m told.

He said that he couldn’t back the current proposals in relation to the deal with Kerry Group for milk suppliers and shareholders.

Crawford had caused some controversy during his time on the board, including speaking at the milk price protests in Charleville in June 2023.

Unsurprisingly, Crawford was removed from the co-op’s strategy committee around the same time.
