The National Chicken Council’s Board of Directors announced that Harrison Kircher is the new President and CEO of the organization, effective January 1, 2025.
“On behalf of the NCC Board, I congratulate Harrison on his appointment as the new President and CEO,” says NCC Chairman Bill Griffith. “His dedication, expertise, and leadership have been evident throughout his time with the Council.”
Kircher has been a member of the NCC team for 13 years, most recently as the senior vice president of government affairs in 2021. His primary focus there has been advancing NCC’s lobbying efforts on Capitol Hill and educating members of Congress and their staffs on a wide range of policy issues, including agriculture, appropriations, immigration, labor, energy, and international trade.
“I’m honored to accept this position and the opportunity to continue working for the chicken industry,” Kircher says. “I’m confident in our future success given the strong team around me.”
