The move from Sundsvall to Kallhäll will take place at the beginning of May, and in that context the product Jämtlandsmjölk will also cease to be produced.
The production of long fiber also ceases.
- Keeping the milk from Jämtland separate would not be economically justifiable, either for the farmers or the consumers.
As for the long file, it is a product that unfortunately is not in demand by so many consumers anymore, says Jörgen Thunholm.
The farmers who today deliver milk to the dairy in Sundsvall will continue to be able to sell their milk to Arla.
- There are approximately 40 Arlagårdars that supply milk to Sundsvall's dairy.
The milk will be collected just as before, and Arla continues to manufacture various dairy products from their milk, which are then sold both locally and around the country, says Jörgen Thunholm.
Cheese production at the dairy in Östersund is not affected by today's announcement.
