Dawn opens €46m flagship plant in Wales

THE progressive Dawn Group, which was founded in Waterford 25 years ago, opened a €46 million flagship meat processing plant in Wales yesterday.

Regarded as one of Europe's most modern and sophisticated food processing plants, it was hailed as a major confidence boost to plans for the growth of west Wales's first dedicated food park.

It was also seen as an exciting project for the €825 million turnover Dawn Group, which has thirteen processing plants in Ireland, Britain and France.
