The whole of Porky Whites couldn’t be prouder for Carla Quirk who has been CONFIRMED as 2026 Women in Meat Industry Awards Nominee!
This news follows last year’s finalist nomination for Carla in the Wholesaling category. Upon hearing news of the finalist nominations, Porky Whites MD Francesca Wyatt said;
"I'm hugely proud of Carla, not just as our Head of People and Customer Relationships, but as my sister. Every day she brings her A-game to ensure our teams and customers receive the very best support and service. Whatever the outcome at the November awards evening, I can honestly say that I couldn't do what I do without her energy and determination to succeed."
Carla Quirk – Head of People and Customer Relationships
The beating heart of Porky Whites Wholesale, Carla’s the go-to for everything from orders to operations. Her unwavering dedication to suppliers, no matter how complex the request, fuels our business growth — and yes, she’s also Fran's sister!
On receiving the news Carla said;
“To be a finalist last year was an honour, but to receive a nomination for the second year in a row is a huge shock and something I would have never expected. Porky Whites has been part of my family’s life for over 90 years, and I do what I do because I love our customers.”
