a2MC eyes own processing plant, more Chinese labels
The a2 Milk Company (a2MC) says securing more China label registrations and developing its own nutritional manufacturing capability are high on its agenda.
The majority Chinese-owned processor has been forced to withdraw its full-year 2021 performance guidance because of significant uncertainty and volatility within its business.
It says the move was prompted by problems with its major customer, a2 Milk Company, which is reeling from a slump in sales of infant formula to China.
Add to that shipping delays and lower infant formula production, and Synlait finds itself in unchartered waters.
The company will announce its half-year results this month.
