The milk processing company went into receivership because of its enormous debts, still owing large sums of money to farmers. The government has pledged to repay around 80-90% of the money owed to farmers by the company.
Swiss Dairy Food was one of Switzerland’s biggest dairy processors and controlled 20% of the milk market. The cheese and ice-cream divisions are likely to be sold, thereby guaranteeing jobs for around two-thirds of the company’s 1600 employees.
