The company has been closely monitoring the dairy markets and believes they are beginning to strengthen again, mainly due to improved cream prices and the effect the poor weather has had on production volumes across Europe, so far, this spring.

Mark Chantler, Chief Executive at Meadow Foods, comments: “We are pleased to pass on the improvements in the market to our farmers just as soon as we can. We are now also looking to recruit a number of producers to meet the ever increasing demand for Meadow’s products.  This is an exciting time for the business as we grow and extend our product range and reach, so I would encourage producers to take a fresh look at Meadow Foods and to see what we have to offer you.”
