Work is complete on a new mozzarella plant at Fonterra's Clandeboye site in New Zealand, doubling production and creating enough mozzarella to top more than 300 million pizzas a year, the company says. The mozzarella is destined for global pizza and pasta restaurant chains across China, Asia and the Middle East. The expansion is part of Fonterra's wider strategy to build on strength in foodser-vice, along with the doubling of cream cheese production at Te Rapa, the recent commissioning of the Waitoa UHT site and plans to expand slice-on-slice cheese capacity at Eltham. The plant will begin 24 hour production immediately, to help meet demand for individual quick frozen grated mozzarella.
