    Kepak Group has appointed Adrian Lawlor to the role of Group Chief Marketing Officer. In addition to his current responsibilities for Insight, Innovation, Marketing and Business Planning for Kepak’s Foods Division, Adrian will assume responsibility for leading the marketing function of the Meat Division. In this role he will work with the Leadership Team to further develop a long-term consumer and customer focused strategy and will support the team in developing plans to deliver against this.
