Vita Cortex Ltd reports €1.75m loss

The main firm in the Vita Cortex group recorded losses totalling €1.75m last year, new figures show.

Some 23 company workers at the group’s Kinsale Rd plant in Cork were at the centre of a long-running dispute earlier this year over redundancy pay.

Workers ended a 161-day sit-in at the plant on May 24 after receiving redundancy payments from owner Jack Ronan.
