A better balance between the amount of milk coming in and the amount needed for production has helped stabilize the situation for Wermland’s Dairy. This is reported by ATL.
In the beginning of the year Wermland’s Dairy AB could ascertain that the sales of fresh milk had decreased significantly, from over 24,000 litres per day to around 18,000 litres in one year. The reasons were the economic crisis and a shift in consumer behaviour.
ATL has interviewed CEO Yngve Gustafsson, Wermland’s Dairy AB, who says that the future looks brighter now. The company has managed to maintain sales volumes compared to last year while reducing the number of suppliers. This has resulted in a better balance between milk supply and demand.
Two suppliers have been retained, and at the same time, there has been an increase in the sales of fermented products:
– These products have increased by 25 percent compared to last year. It’s admittedly small volumes, and in the long run, it will likely level out. But it’s still positive, says Yngve Gustafsson, who expects the dairy to come out of 2023 with a surplus of over 5 million SEK.
