Kerry Foods Direct to Store has expanded into milk distribution in a deal with ACC Milk.

The agreement enables the service to deliver 500ml whole and semi-skimmed milk cartons of ACC Milk’s Dairygate brand to more than 17,500 independent retailers at an rsp of 42p.

The company said milk was the missing link in its portfolio of dairy products, which meant its independent customers had potentially been losing sales to the multiples until now.

Sales and marketing director Paul Stubbins said: “We have added a crucial ingredient to our portfolio.”
