Dairy Crest was one of last year’s winners in the larger business category – why not take a moment to read what their Operations Director Mark Youds had to say about what winning meant to their team in Kirkby.
“We were thoroughly delighted to win the award for Manufacturing Excellence – it is fantastic recognition of the efforts and commitment of the whole of the Dairy Crest Kirkby workforce. Dairy Crest is proud to be part of the Knowsley Business Community.”
