Dairygold clinches Jarlsberg deal

DAIRYGOLD has entered a joint development agreement with Tine Dairies to produce the Norwegian company’s leading Jarlsberg cheese at the co-op’s Mogeely plant in east Cork.

Jarlsberg has been exported to the US for over 30 years where it is the top-selling imported cheese.

The joint development programme is at an early stage and, should it be successful, commercial production will take place at the end of 2005 or early in 2006.
