Musgrave Launches ‘Industry-First’ Podcast Series

Musgrave has launched a “first-of-its-kind” podcast series. ‘Growing Good Business’ will take listeners behind the scenes at the operations of Ireland’s largest food retail, wholesale and foodservice business.

The series will feature unique insights into Musgrave from staff across the business, and goes behind the scenes in supply chain, HR, food safety, and more.

Recorded in various locations, the six-part series, produced in collaboration with AudioBrand, aims to provide listeners with an “unprecedented glimpse” into the inner workings of the company. It combines both in-studio and on-location interviews, with its SuperValu and Centra stores, farms, Musgrave test kitchens, and supply chain operations all showcased.

The first two episodes were released yesterday. The first episode – ‘A History of Entrepreneurship’ – aims to appeal to established business owners and those with an entrepreneurial spirit alike. This episode features conversations with Musgrave CEO Noel Keeley, SuperValu Portumna owner Yvonne O’Meara and HR Director for Learning and Development Anne Rigney.

The second instalment – ‘Growing Sustainably Every Day’ – shines a light on Musgrave’s efforts to grow a more sustainable business, and how an organisation of its scale is playing its part in the journey to net zero. It features conversations with Chief Supply Chain Officer Luke Hanlon, Head of Insights and Strategy Michelle Fennell and Head of Sustainability Owen Keogh.

Episodes three and four are slated for release in the week commencing 16 January, with the final two episodes released at the end of January.

Edel Clancy, Director of Corporate Affairs at Musgrave, said: “We’re thrilled to be launching this unique podcast series, ‘Growing Good Business’, which captures the essence of a 147 year-old family business. Through this new platform, we bring listeners on a journey into the heart of the business – with fascinating insights into who we are, what we’re about and the impact that we have on our communities from the people who make Musgrave what it is today. Their passion, dedication, innovation, and sense of community are evident throughout these behind-the-scenes conversations. I hope listeners enjoy the series as much as we enjoyed making it!”
