The two companies were venture partners in the country but in 2009 Danone bought out Clover. The South African firm continued to supply Danone with commodities and provide services to the businesses.
Clover said the “majority” of the contracts end next December. It said the end of the contracts was “unlikely to have a materially negative impact on Clover’s earnings potential in the medium to long-term”.
It said it could “pursue opportunities” in new product development and other distribution “prospects”.
