Some 1,889 Dairygold milk suppliers, or 64% of the Society’s supplier base, have signed up to become participants in the nationwide scheme, a little under a year since Dairygold began promoting member participation in Bord Bia’s Sustainable Dairy Assurance Scheme.

Bord Bia’s latest retail audit has found that 77% of Aldi’s fresh meat range displays its Quality Assurance mark, giving Aldi the highest ranking of the nine supermarket and convenience store chains surveyed.
