Lactalis Closes Longwarry Dairy Plant | Adelaide News

Lactalis is shutting down its Longwarry dairy factory by early 2027, consolidating operations after acquiring Fonterra Australia and ending up with too many plants for available milk. Production will shift to Darnum and other sites, with some jobs potentially moving—but not all. Employees face phased closures, and while the company says milk contracts for farmers are safe, uncertainty remains over job security. Lactalis insists it remains committed to Victoria, employing over 2,000 people and continuing investment in the region.
