Glanbia will formally open its expanded cheese plant in Wexford on Thursday, with Minister for Agriculture Michael Creed the special guest of honour. The €35m expansion of the Wexford Creamery facility will see milk processing capacity at the plant doubled.
Wexford has experienced strong expansion in milk production since quotas ended. The site was producing almost 20,000t of cheddar cheese when Glanbia acquired the plant from Wexford Milk Producers in 2014. As well as the increased cheese production, the expanded plant will deliver an additional whey stream for Glanbia’s performance nutrition business.
It is expected that Minister Creed will reference Glanbia’s planned €125m investment in their Belview plant.
