Tasmanian Government
Almost a year ago to the day, I said that King Island Dairy would not close on my watch.
Following an enormous effort from many to secure a buyer, I'm proud to say that the King Island Dairy has a bright future ahead.
I will always fight for the best interests of Tasmania and when it was clear that Saputo was willing to walk away and close the dairy, we knew it was on our Government to save the dairy.
Not only will King Island Dairy remain open and continue employing locals on the Island for years to come - the Dairy and brand will be coming back into Australian hands.
This is a big win for all King Islanders, and Tasmanians.
I look forward to joining the new buyers in the coming days and hearing their plans for the future of King Island Dairy.
