Galtee deal with MSVC worth €20m a year

GALTEE MEATS has signed a deal worth €20 million annually with Musgrave SuperValu-Centra (MSVC) for the exclusive supply of pork products.

MSVC services more than 550 independent SuperValu and Centra stores, while Galtee, part of Dairygold co-op, processes pork from some 80 farmers in Munster and south Leinster.

Galtee will process almost 6,000 pigs a week to meet the MSVC demand, which represents 15% of the total national kill for the pork market.
