Fonterra Australia and ProviCo Australia have signed a sale agreement for Fonterra’s Dennington manufacturing site. The sale will be complete by 22 April 2020.

Thirty businesses, registered training organisations and service providers from across Western Victoria came together on Thursday for a Jobs Fair for the team at Fonterra Dennington, ahead of the factory’s closure at the end of November. 

Fonterra has made the decision to close its Dennington site in South West Victoria, with the site to cease operations by the end of November 2019.

Fonterra’s growing Stanhope cheese plant has just reached another key milestone this month. Large pieces of cheese making equipment recently arrived at site and were put into place by a nearly 200-strong team of contractors. 

37,000 litres – enough to fill 148,000 glasses of milk. That’s how much milk one of Fonterra’s new ‘Truck and Dog’ tankers can hold.

Fonterra Australia’s Tasmanian sites are set to gain from almost $12 million in capital projects to boost milk processing, cheese making and lactose capacity.

Darnum is one of seven sites to benefit from expansion under Fonterra Australia’s recently announced $165 million capacity investment.

Fonterra Australia’s largest site is set to get bigger thanks to a $13.5 million investment to boost butter production.
