IS OUR BUSINESS ACTON PRECAST CONCRETE LIMITED MANUFACTURING Holding Tanks Well Tiles Step A Porches Yard and Patio Products By ALAN The Herald While technology changes very slowly in the dairy industry the William Company Limited is making a number of changes this year including splitting the company into two sections creating 60 new jobs at the Georgetown plant and introducing one per cent milk Robert Burch the vicepresident of marketing and sales said The company has recently split into two separate entities called Neilsons Dairy and Cad bury Mr Burch said The com which is located on Guelph Street in Georgetown is dairy The split merely centralizes the dairy of Neilsons which allows us to grow and gives us a greater focus as well as having all their resources close at hand Mr said Dairy makes all the milk products and other dairy pro ducts he said One of the recent additives to the company is fruit bottom yogurt Mr Burch noted is originally a Spanish product but Dairy has obtained the rights to make and distribute the product in Canada he said It is the number one selling fruit bottom yogurt in the world he said is sold in countries molding China Japan the United States France Italy the Netherlands Germany Morocco Mexico Brazil and of course Spain The 75yearold product is now selling Canada In its short sell life Danone is now the number two selling fruit bottom yogurt in Ontario he said The company split will also let Neilson add to its approximately staff Approximately jobs will be created in the Georgetown plant Mr said Before October the company hopes to have filled these positions he said Neilsons will start hiring during the summer At the moment the big push for the company is the selling of one per cent milk which will start April Mr said By no means does this mean a replacement of any of the other milk pro ducts he said Mr Burch is expecting the new one per cent milk product to cap ture a large portion of the On tarios milk drinkers market the way it has in four other provinces Since Manitoba started selling per cent milk in May 1987 it has captured 14 per cent of the market Mr Burch said In Saskatchewan nine per cent of the milk consumed was one per cent milk Saskatchwan started selling one per cent milk in November 1988 he said Since August one per cent milk has captured 13 per cent of the Alberta market and 10 per cent of the British Columbia market Mr said He added one per cent milk has less fat and calories than either homogonized milk or two per cent milk Many people do not luce the taste of skim milk but want low fat he said Skim milk has only a trace of fat in a 250 millHitre serving Mr Burch said It also has only SO calories he added Homogonized milk has eight grams of fat and calories in the same sized serving he said Two per cent milk has five grams of fat and calories in the same sized serving Mr Burch said The packaging of the new pro duct is also different The new one per cent milk carton is white in stead of the normal heavy reds and blues of the other products White Is a light fresher color that communicates low fat Mr said Mr Burch sees the same low fat and calorie trend expanding its way into the other dairy products I think what will change are pro ducts not technology he said Any major change in the technology although it may not change the actual product could stop some people from continuing to buy a specific product Mr Burch said is already rated as the top modernized plant for its size and market Mr noted The plant has a fully automated milk processing machine stop contact between the employees and the product he said Mr Burch added it also helps us to make a con sistantly good product The environment the industry is in makes new technology slow in coming Mr
