Today’s Women in Grocery luncheon at the InterContinental

More than 450 female business leaders from the world of grocery, food and drink gathered in the InterContinental for the fourth annual Today’s Women in Grocery (TWIG) charity networking luncheon. Designer Sonya Lennon acted as MC, while guests included Eir CEO Carolan Lennon, beauty entrepreneur Suzanne Jackson, and global president of Mars Fiona Dawson, who gave the keynote speech. The TWIG group was created by the Irish Grocers Benevolent Fund (IGBF) as a platform for women in grocery to grow their connections, learn from inspirational women and propel more women to the senior ranks of the industry, and all funds raised on the day are donated to the IGBF.
