Commenting on the price, a spokesperson for the co-op said: “The escalation of trade wars, as well as the continued uncertainty around Brexit, is casting a shadow on the dairy markets.
"Returns for many of the key products have now stabilised after a period of significant price pressure over the summer. Lakeland will continue to monitor the market closely in the coming weeks.”
