IT is time to stop “banging on” about Kraft‘s actions in closing the Cadbury factory in Keynsham, the town’s MP has said.
The American food company pledged to work to keep the Somerdale plant open as it fought a bitter takeover battle for the British chocolate maker in 2009.
But within a week of winning control of Cadbury in February last year, Kraft announced a U-turn. It said Cadbury’s previously-announced closure plans, under which production of snacks, including Double Deckers and Curly Wurlies, would move to Poland, were too far advanced to reverse.
The factory ceased production at the end of last year and the last workers left in March.
