ICMSA to consider Glanbia Co-op proposal

THE proposal by Glanbia Co-op to purchase the Irish business of Glanbia plc will be discussed by the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers Association (ICMSA) at a meeting in Kilkenny on Monday night.

County executives that comprise the ICMSA south-east region are expected to adopt a position on the proposal.

The ICMSA has yet to decide a definitive position on the Glanbia Co-op, move, which could have a significant structural impact on the entire dairy industry.
