Sales at Dairy Crest were given a 6 per cent boost by the out-performance of key brands Cathedral City and Clover in the first quarter, despite the ‘challenging butter market’.
Boss Mark Allen said: ‘2018/19 has started as we expected, with our two most important brands, Cathedral City and Clover, delivering a strong performance.
‘While the butter market remains challenging, our spreads portfolio continues to go from strength to strength, demonstrating the benefit of our diversified portfolio.’
Dairy Crest expects to launch several new products before the end of the year.
