Caroline Martin, corporate marketing and communications manager, Dale Farm, commented: “Our world-class dairy products come from world-class milk produced by the 1,300 farmers within our cooperative, and the craftsmanship of our people who use it to make award-winning cheese.
“These awards are a guarantee of product quality for our consumers, and we are immensely proud to once again have our delicious cheese recognised on a global stage.”
Dale Farm markets its cheese ranges under the Dale Farm and Dromona brands in Northern Ireland and Great Britain across retail, food service and ingredient channels.
The company produces 50,000 tonnes of cheddar per annum from its state-of-the-art plant in Cookstown, County Tyrone, using milk supplied by its dairy farmer owners.
