Glens of Antrim Potatoes enters administration, 95 jobs lost at Ballymena firm

Nearly all of the company's 95 staff have been made redundant, with only a few kept on to assist the administration. Cash flow pressure, linked to rising costs across the agri-food sector, was cited as the cause. Directors looked at refinancing and new investment, but neither proved viable.

The business, founded in 1972, launched its crisp brand in 2015. The administrators are now seeking buyers for the business and its assets.
