MWC is a new, world-class, highly-efficient dairy processing plant set to open in Fall 2020 in St. Johns Michigan. The 370,000 square foot plant is a joint venture between Glanbia Nutritionals, Dairy Farmers of America and Select Milk Producers. DFA and Select Milk are primarily responsible for supplying the milk while Glanbia’s primary focus is processing the milk and marketing the final products (cheese and whey).
Our business is built on the basis of social, environmental and economic sustainability. At Glanbia our focus on minimizing waste and maximizing the circular economy includes how we address waste at our manufacturing sites and in our customer facing brands.
For many, recycling is the obvious action to tackle the problems facing our environment. For Glanbia the focus, since launching a group-wide sustainability strategy in 2015, has primarily been on executing a phased sustainability programme focused on waste, water, and energy consumption.
Southwest Cheese takes pride in collaborating with local non-profits in a bid to help improve the local community. In 2019, the employees of the cheese plant engaged in several opportunities with local community partners and provided much-needed aid through volunteering opportunities, donations and fundraisers.
The scientific evidence is clear: Climate Change is impacting health, livelihoods, food security, water supply, human security and economic growth and the effects are more damaging and happening sooner than previously believed. The scale of the challenge demands action across society.
In 2015 we began a group wide sustainability programme and in the intervening years we have built our data sets across the group, whilst working with the internationally renowned Carbon Trust in evolving our strategic direction.
