The expansion will increase output from 160,000 tonnes to 210,000 tonnes a year and create up to 20 permanent jobs, according to factory manager Bruce Donnison.
The plant improvements are also expected to help absorb milk production increases and meet processing demands across the South Island, reported the Southland Times.
