The turnover of the creamery for 2000 was £6,465,000 and £6,530,000 for 1999. Profit before taxation was £181,000 in 2000 and £149,000 in 1999. The statement of movement in profits retained, balance at December 31, 2000 is £4,101,000 and £3,938, 000 in 1999. Newtownsandes Co-op Dairy Society Ltd is one of the great success stories in the locality, however, they seem to have an undemocratic method of selecting committee members.
