    They have retained the Brand. But a brand is useless unless you produce something under it. I dont see anywhere where Froneri is compelled to produce Kapiti branded ice cream product.

    surely if they have licensed the brand,Fonterra would have a performance clause in the agreement?

    I would think that retention of the brand is essential if they are to keep producing Kapiti cheeses. Mind you, that may be the next added value bit of the business to go on the block!

    Another earnings downgrade


    As a result, Fonterra is revising its earnings guidance range from 15 - 25 cents per share to 10 - 15 cents per share

    And can’t hack in Australia

    not a surprise , they dont want to make the hard decisions around capital structure which would enable growth.

    See dean foods in the US the biggest milk producer is on the verge of going bust.

    I think it will be many a year before the listed Fonterra units have a meaningful future, for that to happen the co-op model has to be revamped and only 80% of the milk solid returns to be paid to the suppliers, but that wont happen !!!

    While commentators have rightly given Fonterror a good kicking for their China investment debacle they have not discussed an important lesson to be learned.

    Investing in China is hard. There are too many angry tigers hiding in the bamboo waiting to pounce and drag you down. With the recent inward looking change in Chinese politics the situation is likely to get worse.

    When deciding whether to invest in China and being told tales of a zillion Chinese waiting to buy your product the correct response for directors is to say "yeah nah".
