4ppl milk price increase for suppliers to Braeforge (AKA Pensworth) from 1st August takes them to 50ppl

Posted on: 30/06/22

This takes their liquid standard litre price to 50ppl and is the first and earliest processor to achieve a 50p price.  The price includes the 1ppl paid to all Pensworth producers who participate in their Herd Health Scheme which promotes animal welfare.

In a communication to its producers Pensworths Trading Director is very clear on his milk pricing policy “Our aim going forward will be to match market returns and be more aligned with manufacturing contracts.”  So not matching other processors farmgate milk prices.

No following Arla or others which is encouraging.
