Tirlán awarded Bord Bia Origin Green Gold Membership for 2023 – our fourth year in a row

Tirlán has been awarded Bord Bia Origin Green Gold Membership status for the fourth year in a row in recognition of our excellence in sustainable food production.

This year, our actions to encourage ‘Employee Wellbeing’ were commended, with initiatives including mindfulness, designated coaching and employee assistance programme all recognised.

The awarding of the Origin Green Gold Standard is a prestigious badge of honour and recognises our co-operative’s excellence as part of Ireland’s pioneering food and drink sustainability programme. Origin Green is the world’s only national food and drink sustainability programme and helps our industry to set and achieve measurable sustainability targets that respect the environment and serve local communities more effectively.

Jim Bergin, Tirlán CEO, said: “Origin Green Gold Membership for yet another year recognises the trojan work that our family farm milk and grain suppliers are doing. It also rewards the strides we are making as a farmer-owned co-operative to cut our own environmental impact and recognises the impact we are making with our research partners in this area on a daily basis.”
