“We will continue servicing Morrisons until October 2005 as previously announced, and are finalising our plans for reducing costs to mitigate the loss of this contract,” he said. Our new depot at Northampton is progressing satisfactorily and is on schedule to be operational by November. Planning for a new dairy in South West England continues and discussions with local authorities regarding planning are ongoing.”
