Foods and beverages group, Clover South Africa, has cited the lack of service delivery as a reason behind the decision to relocate its biggest cheese production plant from Lichtenburg in the North West province, to Queensburgh in Durban. Clover says the Lichtenburg factory has been experiencing water and power outages, and the surrounding infrastructure has not been maintained by the municipality which has impacted on production. The company says despite several engagements with the municipality on these matters, the issues have not been resolved. The move will result in more than 300 employees losing their jobs.
