Manitoba Egg Farmers have announced the hiring of a new general manager.

Cory Rybuck will join the association at the end of November.

Long-time general manager Penny Kelly will be leaving her position at the end of the year.

Rybuck spent the last five years with the Agriculture and Food Council of Alberta, serving as General Manager for the last two years. He is originally from Manitoba.

MEF chair Ed Kleinsasser says Rybuck's extensive background in food safety and quality assurance will be a valuable asset to the organization.
