Alliance Group to invest $2 million at Pukeuri Plant in Oamaru
Through this investment, the company based in New Zealand wants to re-configure the plant's beef slaughter chain in order to create a more comfortable and ergonomically designed environment for staff and reduce the risk of injury during processing operations.
In addition, Alliance Group is looking to improve efficiency by enabling increased throughputs and facilitate the recovery of additional head meats.
"This is another example of how we’re investing in our plants and communities to help keep our people safe and improve the efficiency of livestock processing so we can ultimately lift returns to our farmer shareholders,” David Surveyor, chief executive of Alliance Group, announced.
Mr. Surveyor added that the group wants to continue to invest in its processing operations to ensure that its red meat production remains competitive on a global scale.
“This is being achieved in a variety of areas including lowering our operating costs and improving productivity, maximizing yield and value and matching products to optimal market opportunities,” CEO David Surveyor said.
Mr. Surveyor also said that the group wants to strengthen the performance and productivity of its plants so that it remains the leader in New Zealand red meat production.
