Supplies of Irn-Bru 'under threat' as workers balloted for strike

[philanderer] 14/6/2023 13:11

A wind farm which will help power the production of Irn-Bru has been officially opened.

A total of 22GWh per year from the South Kyle site will go to AG Barr facilities - including its factory in Cumbernauld.

The company signed a contract in 2020 with developer Vattenfall for 100% renewable electricity at its plants.

The wind farm - which straddles East Ayrshire and Dumfries and Galloway - was approved six years ago.

Nice dividend into my ii account this morning :-)

[makinbuks] 23/5/2023 11:03

I don't think that reads across to Moma. Here's what the article says:

"But it appears the boom-time for some vegan products may now be over. While Oatly’s range of oat drinks enjoys high demand, the Swedish company confirmed last week it was withdrawing its ice-cream tubs from the UK market."

The article talks about various "products" launched with clever names by big players. I suggest that most vegans are turned off by packaged food, certainly when it comes from the likes of Coca Cola or Nestle. They are very environmentally conscious and are much more likely to shop in their local fruit and veg shop for fresh produce. I speak as someone with a wife and four out of five children who have all turned vegetarian.

On the previous post on the two new flavours, I have bought an eight pack of each from my local Home Bargains and thoroughly approve. The ice cream flavour is my pick of the two. Interestingly its me an the non veggie child that are consumers of Irn Bru too. Not sure if thats connected

Trendy vegan brands are set for a wipeout, experts predict

The latest casualty in the flatlining vegan market is Oatly, the Swedish oat milk firm, which has been forced to withdraw its dairy-free ice cream in the UK, The Observer reports

xd tomorrow morning for the 10.6p dividend

[makinbuks] 08/5/2023 09:12

Rising input costs and silly Scottish Government policy (now on hold) have taken their toll. With a recession still likely or at least a couple of years of stagnant growth a PE of 15 is reasonable. As I've said before I think we're in a £5 - £6 trading range for some time
