Dunbia Extends Pork Business
British and Irish meat processor Dunbia has expanded its operations through the purchase of English pork business Heathfield Foods. The deal increases the total number of processing facilities in the Dunbia Group to ten throughout the UK and Ireland.
Jim Dobson, managing director of Dunbia, comments: “The strategic location of the Heathfield Foods facility coupled with its strong pork supply base positioned it as a perfect fit for the Dunbia Group. By dovetailing into the existing business operations and infrastructure of Dunbia, the site will further increase our overall pork processing capabilities.”
The Heathfield Foods facility has been renamed to Dunbia (Crewe) and Dunbia production commenced on 24th October. Over the years Dunbia has developed to become one of Europe’s leading suppliers of beef, lamb and pork products for the national and international retail, commercial and food service markets.
