Overview
- Ever Fresh Dairy, which had joint liquidators appointed on March 19, has entered creditor-led liquidation.
- Creditors named Robert Neil Dymon and Joanne Louise Hammond of BTG Begbies Traynor in Northampton to oversee the wind-up.
- The London supplier sold milk, bread, butter, eggs, cheese and yoghurt and presented itself as a fast-growing, quality-focused business.
- The shutdown follows months of price cuts by large processors such as Arla, Muller and First Milk, who say lower payments reflect global market conditions.
- Industry data cited by NFUS shows prices for mild cheddar, butter and skimmed milk powder near five-year lows, while UK milk output is forecast to exceed 13 billion litres this year.
