Wyke Farms
Somerset cheese maker, Wyke Farms was bombarded with messages of support in August, after it launched a Facebook campaign to fight its delisting by Morrisons.
Wyke Farms md Richard Clothier told FoodManufacture.co.uk the firm's Facebook 'likes' had risen from 5,000 to more than 7,000 in just a few days.
“This shows that people feel strongly about retailers flexing their muscles,” he said.
The campaign invited supporters to ask Morrisons’ staff in local stores to retain Wyke Farm products. The retailer told the cheese maker that it will no longer stock its cheeses from mid-September.
