The company said it will incur costs of US$29.8m associated with the transfer of production to other facilities. Excluding these costs, Post expects to generate annual savings of $14m a year.
“These actions are intended to allow for reinvestment in Post’s business and to better position Post to compete in today’s competitive landscape,” the company said.
