Hirtshals plans Arla merger

Hirtshals Co-operative Dairy has approached Arla Foods with a view to merging the two companies.

This means that Hirtshals’ co-operative members will be offered membership of Arla Foods. Hirtshals board of directors will present their decision to the dairy’s co-operative members at an extraordinary meeting on 18 December. Hirtshals has also decided to cease production at its Ingstrup dairy. Arla intends to maintain Hirtshals Co-operative Dairy and will be evaluating its production and dairy products.
