At FPP we consider the sharing of content and knowledge to be one of our principal responsibilities. We’ve created FPP Checkout to allow us to deliver against this.

The purpose of this platform is to simplify the consumption of content. With so many sources in both the offline and online world, it’s easy to fall behind on essential reading. Checkout finds relevant, up-to-date information and delivers it to you in one easily-accessible environment. What’s more, we also use Checkout to provide FPP category analysis and opinion whenever and wherever relevant.

Checkout is a platform designed with you in mind. And that doesn’t just apply to the content we deliver, but also the way in which we deliver it. We provide information that isn’t just relevant to the industry as a whole, but relevant to you as an individual.

If you click on ‘My Account’, you’ll be able to select the categorical content that is of interest to you. This will allow us to prioritise the content that we know you like.

We use a number of sources for the articles featured on Checkout. Whilst we won’t necessarily cover all of the publications you access, below is a list of the most common to try and give you as much as possible in one place:

Freshways working with rival Medina Dairy

Milk processor Freshways has confirmed it is working with rival Medina Dairy, but denied claims the two firms are considering a merger.

Freshways MD Bali Nijjar told The Grocer this week that the two processors were working together on “some contract packaging and swaps”. However, he dismissed claims the company was exploring a possible merger with Medina as “rumours”.

Industry insiders have suggested talks between the two parties on a possible merger, which would create a business turning over in excess of £380m a year, were at an advanced stage.

Medina and Freshways reported combined pre-tax losses of £4m in their most recent accounts, citing difficult market conditions.
