Midfield Group plans for a milk powder plant and enlarged
cold storage facility in Warrnambool received parliamentary
approval this week. The factory will not be built until the milk
powder plant already planned for Penola is operating: while this
plant is reportedly awaiting permits, it is expected to be
operational in July 2016, starting with 160 million litres per year.
The two plants bring Midfield’s planned dairy manufacturing
investment to around $130 million.
