The managing director of Glenisk yogurt Vincent Cleary has said that the company will regroup and rebuild to become operational as quickly as possible following the devastating fire on Monday which completely destroyed the Killeigh, Co Offaly yogurt manufacturing plant.

Mr Cleary admitted that tears had been shed during the night but that he would be meeting with line managers today to “make a list” to get back to work.
