Quotes

...of the LAA, said the closure would affect sheep producers throughout the region but there were alternatives in the form of local markets which "provide a flexible and transparent system in which to sell stock and an opportunity for producers to contribute towards creating a fair and competitive price for their sheep"
"The Netherlands, Germany and a number of select international markets are geographically aligned in such a way that they offer Vion Food significant opportunities to achieve far-reaching operational integration, synergy and a considerably lower cost base" Vion said
"Vion stated that the latest decision has been taken as both the food and ingredients businesses serve their own markets and clients, face their own challenges and adhere to their own strategies."
"The ongoing poor market conditions, particularly in the European pork sector, have forced the company to make choices" VION said, adding that acquisitions and an increase in scale at VION Food over the past decade, "have not delivered the expected results"
