Wyke Farms, OMSCo partner to become EU’s largest producer of organic Cheddar cheese
The additional milk will allow Wyke Farms and OMSCo to capitalize on the growth of the organic market on a global scale to EU and USDA spec.
Wyke Farms, a UK-based independent milk processor, and The Organic Milk Suppliers Cooperative (OMSCo), a producer of organic milk and organic cheese exporter based in the UK, partnered to expand organic cheese production, distribution and sales.
Wyke Farms and OMSCo plan to more than treble their already extensive range of organic cheese amounting to over 1,000 tons last year. The new arrangement will see Wyke Farms sourcing all milk requirements for organic cheese production from OMSCo, whilst OMSCo will increase its range of specialist organic cheese made by Wyke Farms for export markets and take a share in the ownership of bulk cheddar stocks for a portion of domestic and export sales.
