Jobs at risk at drinks factory with 260 employees months after £60m investment

Jobs are at risk at a major food and drink manufacturer in Cardiff, just months after a £60m investment. The huge investment in Princes factory in Cardiff was completed in December 2022, doubling production capacity and creating 130 new jobs. Princes in Cardiff is one of the largest employers in the area with more than 260 employees.

Of the £60m investment by Princes, £3m was contributed by the Welsh Government. However, the company - best known as a soft drink producer - has confirmed they are reviewing their operating strategy and have entered into "collective consultation" with colleagues at their Cardiff and Bradford sites.

Princes who manufacture Princes, Jucee and customer own label products have been asked how many staff are impacted by these changes but have not disclosed this information.
