Cadbury to cut 200 jobs in Dublin and Kerry

Cadbury Ireland are seeking to cut 200 jobs at its plants in Dublin and Kerry.

The company said it will be seeking the redundancies at the facilities in Coolock and Rathmore in a bid to reduce costs.

They said they remain committed to manufacturing in Ireland, and are announcing a €20m investment in the Coolock site.

But they said in order to safe guard operations in Ireland, costs need to be reduced.

Consultations with staff representatives at both sites will be held.
