The maker of Hovis bread and Mr Kipling cakes plans to shut a 109-year-old flour mill with the loss of 43 jobs.
Premier Foods, which is nearly £1bn in debt, is set to close the mill at Barry Docks by the end of October, ending a long history in south Wales.
The Atlantic Mills site was built in 1904 by the then Hovis-Bread Flour Company, the UK’s largest flour miller, later renamed Rank Hovis.
Consultations with the employees in Barry will begin in the next few days.
