Polish meat producer Animex is ending beef-production operations at its Morliny brand as part of a restructuring plan that will see 230 employees lose their jobs, reported Puls Biznesu.
Poland's biggest meat producer has decided to trim some of its fat, and beef was judged to be its weakest segment.
“Beef proved to be an unprofitable product despite numerous attempts to keep this sector of the operations going,” Andrzej Pawelczak, a spokesperson for Animex, told Puls Biznesu.
“The restructuring involves the liquidation of the Morliny beef production department, and thus stopping the slaughter of cattle and the production of beef, which in turn requires a corresponding adjustment of employment levels to continue to carry out processing,” he added.
Animex will now concentrate on the production of both pork and poultry products.
