Loseley Ice Cream Factory Closes, Auction of Equipment to Take Place 14 July
By Rabin Worldwide, PRNEMonday, July 4, 2011
CWMBRAN, Wales, July 5, 2011 -
Equipment from the former Loseley Dairy Ice Cream factory will
be sold at public auction by Rabin Worldwide, a leading
international industrial auction house. This comes after Loseley’s
stock, intellectual property rights, and brands were purchased by
Beechdean Farmhouse Dairy Ice Cream Company in May.
Loseley Dairy Ice Cream Ltd. is a former luxury ice cream brand
in the United Kingdom that encountered financial problems and
ultimately had to sell their business. In April of this year,
Loseley handed over the business to the administration company
Portland Business & Financial Solutions as a result of facing
strong competition in their industry and increased costs of raw
materials.
Loseley invested over 10 million pounds Sterling in the 80,000
square foot plant, which was built in 2004. The factory houses
state of the art production lines and fully automated processing
equipment. This plant was built primarily to produce ice cream,
however many different items are for sale. Confectionery production
equipment, storage tanks, and packaging equipment are all included
in this auction. For more details on the items available in the
auction, please visit

On Thursday, July 14, 2011, Rabin Worldwide, and their partners
Indassol and CRG, will conduct a public auction of the equipment at
the Hilton Newport Hotel in Newport, South Wales. This auction will
utilize Rabin Live™ auction technology, which allows customers from
all over the world to bid on items over the Internet in real time,
in conjunction with onsite bidding. Previews and inspection of the
equipment will take place on July 12th and 13th between 9:00 am and
4:00 pm at the facility in Cwmbran. Appointments can also be made
to view the equipment earlier through Rabin’s UK-based partner
Indassol by calling 44(0) 207 036 0507.
