Aurivo has introduced “strict” Covid-19 protocols in relation to the collection of milk from farms.

Today, Wednesday, April 1, the co-op communicated best practice advice to all its milk suppliers to “protect the health and safety of all suppliers, employees and contractors”.

“This will focus on minimising person-to-person contact. All Aurivo personnel entering farms have been instructed to follow strict hygiene procedures,” Aurivo said in a statement.

Aurivo stressed that, if a supplier becomes ill with Covid-19, or the farm is affected in some way by a case of Covid-19, this “will be treated in the absolute strictest of confidence and measures will be implemented to continue to collect milk or make deliveries to/from your farm”.

“Aurivo remains committed to business continuity and the provision of services while adhering to all public health guidelines to protect our employees, members and customers,” the co-op highlighted.
