Mike Sheldon, Group Procurement Director, said "The increases we are announcing show Dairy Crest’s commitment to pay fair, market related milk prices to our farmers. We expect to recover the increased raw milk costs from our customers and are continuing to work with them to adopt our innovative formula as a means of setting our prices with them. We see this as a key step in building trust in the pricing process."
The new prices will be 33.25 ppl for Davidstow and 32.50 ppl for liquid, on a standard litre basis.
