In the United Kingdom the largest dairy cooperative Arla is considering selling its speciality cheese plant in Melton Mowbray. This because over the last few years the speciality cheese market in the UK has continued to decline. The plant employs about 60 people. Until there has been taken a decision the plant will continue to be operational and there will be no impact to production, customers, or employees, according to Arla. In the UK Arla has about 2000 member farms.
