Dairygold in consultation with employees over possible Crewe closure

Dairygold has announced plans to cease cheese formatting operations at its site in Crewe and is in talks to sell off its soft cheese business in Leeds.

The Munster-headquartered firm has begun a consultation process with employees around the potential closure of the facility in Crewe, which currently employs around 90 people. The facility manufactures grated, shredded, diced and sliced cheese for the UK food manufacturing and food service sectors.
