Dairy farmers supplying the Davidstow cheese business through Saputo Dairy UK (SDUK) will receive a 2.35p/litre milk price rise from 1 January, taking the standard manufacturing price for their milk to 35p/litre.

The price uplift is in response to farmer representative body Davidstow Creamery Direct’s (DCD) concerns about inflationary pressure on its suppliers.

DCD chairman Stephen Bone said he was pleased SDUK had responded to those concerns with a significant price increase for January.

“It is much needed and will be welcomed by our members,’’ he said.

Saputo’s newly-appointed chief operations officer Frank Guido is to step down for unstated personal reasons, the dairy giant has announced.
