Arla Foods UK plans to invest approximately £37.5 million (€43.9m) in its UK sites and logistics in 2017, an increase of 51% from 2016. The UK figure is part of the £285 million investment Arla expects to make at sites around the world. It is moving more milk from bulk into branded, own label and foodservice sales. Overall, investment is nearly 50% more compared to last year and one of the highest ever single-year supply chain investment in the company's history. The money will be spread across Aria's 13 UK production, packing and distribution sites along with its logistics. These include: • Taw Valley creamery will see £5m (€5.8m) to develop capacity to support product quality for its hard cheeses such as cheddar, Red Leicester and Double Gloucester.
