Moy Park has appointed David Gibson as its director of agriculture.

Gibson has been with the company for 26 years and will be responsible for the whole division across Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

He will be based at Moy Park's Dungannon site and will report to James French, Moy Park's agri & fresh poultry director.
