The owners of Moy Park, one of the biggest poultry producers in the world, has warned that its operations may be adversely affected if the UK is unable to secure post-Brexit replacement trade arrangements, on terms as favourable as those currently enjoyed.
Pilgrim's Pride Corporation, which bought up Moy Park in September last year for £1 billion, have issued the stark warning in the face of all the uncertainty swirling around the Brexit negotiations.
Moy Park processes some six million birds a week, and operates factories in the UK, France and the Netherlands.
