NEW BEGINNING FOR WEXFORD CREAMERY

Fine Gael’s Senator Liam Twomey has welcomed a new beginning for Wexford Creamery.

“Recent events have seen the milk producers increase their stake in the creamery from 20% to 70%, making the farmers who supply the milk the majority shareholders of Wexford Creamery. This will help copper fasten jobs locally and protect the future of Wexford Creamery.”

“It is important that a serious commitment is made to agri industry in County Wexford. The loss of the sugar beet sector had a huge impact on the agri economy in county Wexford. This county produces top class agri products and the farmers who produce excellent milk are vital to the cheese production in County Wexford.”

“I would like to wish the farmers continued success in all their work to date and would also like to wish everyone at Wexford Creamery every success in their new venture for the future.”
