Pallet maker retains Fonterra contract
Timpack, one of New Zealand's largest wooden pallet and bin manufacturers, has been rewarded an exclusive contract to supply Fonterra.
Last week, owners of a planned greenfield dairy plant in Otorohanga went into voluntary administration after struggling for years to secure capital.
The project rattled farmers in the area, who mostly supply Fonterra. The co-op was bracing to lose suppliers to Happy Valley.
Some Fonterra farmers had made public submissions opposing consent applications lodged by Happy Valley.
