Milk Link Agrees Acquisition of Llandyrnog Creamery From DFoB
Milk Link has announced that it has agreed in principle to buy the Llandyrnog Creamery and its associated operations from Dairy Farmers of Britain, which went into receivership last week.
The agreement will be subject to the finalising of all necessary legal documentation and is expected to be completed by Friday 12th June at the latest.
Neil Kennedy, Milk Link Chief Executive, said: “This is great news both for Milk Link and the loyal staff and farmers who are at the very heart of the Llandrynog Creamery. The acquisition of Llandyrnog will complement our existing market leading cheese business and we believe will deliver, over time, substantial business benefits.”
Lets hope that the rest of the beleagured DFoB operation gets up mopped up equally quickly, and that the farmers involved all get alternative outlets for their milk asap.
