Poultry giant 2 Sisters Food Group is proposing to close a chicken factory which would see over 700 jobs lost. The business, which is one of Britain’s largest food producers, says its Llangefni poultry processing operation was “not sustainable” and lacked space to be efficient.
In a statement, the firm said Llangefni, which is bought in 2013, is one of its smallest sites and products could be made more efficiently elsewhere. Despite the firm having invested £5m at the site, the company said the old building would need significant investment to bring it up to the same standard as its other operations or face closure.
