Kerry Group CEO says it is well positioned to weather any tariff war

Tue, 18th Feb 2025 10:06

DUBLIN, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Irish food ingredients multinational Kerry Group believes it is better positioned than many rivals to weather a trade war, but its chief executive said it is impossible to say whether tariffs will impact its financial performance this year.

"Because of the local nature of our business, we're probably better positioned relative to many of our competitors," Chief Executive Edmond Scanlon told Reuters.

"There might be a few challenges. There might be a few opportunities as well." (Writing by Conor Humphries; Editing by Alison Williams)
