The Casino meatworks will distribute an extra $3 million to its 1300 members, with the board approving the payment as a way to rewards members and encourage future support.
Chairman of the Northern Co-operative Meat Company Ltd, a BCCM member, John Seccombe, said the payment was in addition to the bovine carcase weight incentive payments that members received each quarter.
“The incentive payment will be distributed on the basis of $1 per head porcine and approximately $17 per head bovine for directly consigned livestock processed at NCMC facilities within the financial year ended June 28, 2015,” he said.
This in addition to further funding for the co-operative to create and provide for a long-term platform for the business.
