Glanbia members ‘have role in buyout offer’

GLANBIA co-op members have been urged to engage fully in the decision-making process on the society’s buy-out offer for Glanbia’s plc’s Irish dairy and agri business.

Irish Farmers Association president John Bryan said it was critically important that Glanbia Co-op present full details of the offer to every shareholder. This was necessary so that all farmers can have a transparent debate and make an informed decision when it comes to voting on the proposal.

“The outcome of these discussions will have long-term implications, not just for Glanbia Co-op shareholders, but for the entire Irish dairy and grain sectors,” he said.
