“Pilgrim’s Europe will now enter into collective consultation with colleagues at both sites, and those affected will be supported throughout the consultation process. This will include exploring opportunities for redeployment to other sites within the Pilgrim’s Europe business.”
Ivanor Clasen, Pilgrim’s Europe business unit director for added value, said: “We don’t make these proposals lightly but, to ensure a long-term sustainable future for our business, we have to make strategic decisions that allow us to meet evolving customer and consumer demand.
“Making these changes will help us protect the majority of jobs at both sites and deliver on our strategy to be the best strategic partner for our customers, producing the best and most innovative products for consumers.
“We fully recognise that this will be a difficult time for those valued colleagues who are impacted and will provide them with every support we can throughout the consultation process.”
Pilgrims, a company known for its job losses and mass recruitment drives, advertised 50 jobs in February 2023, followed by 90 new positions at its Redruth site in May, and another 70 in November. Since 2016, the firm has confirmed hundreds of job losses overall.
