Arla Foods has discussed with local stakeholders the proposed closure of its Settle creamery in North Yorkshire. The meeting, hosted by Skipton MP Sir Julian Smith, included representatives from the GMB Union, North Yorkshire Council, and local councillors.
Discussions focused on potential land options for Arla’s operations, employee support, and alternative business strategies. Arla is currently consulting with affected employees and engaging with the GMB Union and local authorities.
Further meetings are planned as stakeholders assess all possible options for the site and impacted workers.
