Glanbia milk price - July 2020

-

August 11th, 2020: Glanbia will pay its Member milk suppliers 30.10 cent per litre (cpl) (including VAT) for July creamery milk supplies at 3.6% butterfat and 3.3% protein. This is unchanged from the June milk price.

Glanbia Ireland (GI) will pay a base milk price for July of 29.68 cpl (including VAT) for creamery milk at 3.6% fat and 3.3% protein.

Farmer Members will also receive a 0.42 cpl (including VAT) payment from Glanbia Co-op on all milk supplied this month as their ‘ Share of GI Profit’.

The Glanbia Ireland base price and the Share of GI Profit payment will be adjusted to reflect the actual constituen­ts of milk delivered by suppliers. The actual average price paid by Glanbia for July creamery milk, based on delivered constituen­ts, will be 33.86 cpl.

Glanbia Chairman Martin Keane said:

“The current market balance is fragile. Weak global economic data and high rates of coronaviru­s in many key importing regions are of concern. Market direction will depend on the level of milk supply in key regions and recovery of foodservic­e demand.

Coronaviru­s measures: Martin Keane thanked all Glanbia Ireland employees, contractor­s and suppliers for their ongoing efforts to deal with the Coronaviru­s challenge. He encouraged everyone to maintain their vigilance and to follow all official advice.

Since Monday 10 August, Glanbia Ireland’s Agribusine­ss branches in the counties of Laois, Kildare and Offaly have reverted to a ‘call and collect’ service, with customers in these three counties asked to place their orders from branches in advance by phone, or via www. glanbiacon­nect.com
