This increase in capacity at Davidstow will enable Dairy Crest to respond to the growing cheese market in the UK, including convenience and snacking products.
Dairy Crest, UK, announced a significant investment in its Davidstow creamery in Cornwall, UK.
Ultimately, the investment will enable Dairy Crest to process an additional 200 million liters of milk every year, increasing the company’s annual cheese production capacity from 54,000 tons to 77,000 tons over the next 4-5 years. The company’s whey production at the site, largely used for the global infant formula market, will also grow proportionally.
