FARMERS LOSE OUT WITH LOSS OF KILDARE CHILLING TO DAWN MEATS

FARMERS LOSE OUT WITH LOSS OF KILDARE CHILLING TO DAWN MEATS

Sep 25, 2023 | , | 0

ICSA Beef chair Edmund Graham has called on the new Food Regulator to pay special attention to the takeover of Kildare Chilling by Dawn Meats which he said has devastating implications for competition for both beef and lamb. “Farmers have lost all faith in the CCPC which has nodded through this takeover. The reality is that a factory that many farmers depended on to sell cattle and lambs at a fair price is now under the control of one of the big two. This will not be a good outcome for farmers.”
