The manufacturing cuts come in order to realign resources with a reduction in volume, a spokesperson for the company told just-food.
The spokesperson said the move came as part of the group’s restructuring drive, which was launched in September. The UK biscuit maker aims to create a more “streamlined, competitive and focused company”.
