"It is an honour for me to accept the Chair today but a hard act to follow as Patrick and the Team did such a great job over the last 2 years in very difficult times.

---

I am very excited about taking on the role and I know my fellow Board Members and the rest of the IFSA team will be there as always to support me.

As Chair one of my goals is to continue to promote IFSA's Core Values  and grow the membership so we can  continue to leverage our collective strengths and resources to deliver a suite of benefits for our members and offer support to end users in the Foodservice Sector across the Island of Ireland.

I look forward to working with the Team over the next two years  but In the short term I hope we can all get through the next few weeks and have a healthy, happy and peaceful Christmas.

Finally, a thank you.to you the members for supporting the organisation because without you we would not exist."
