The Farmlands Dunedin complex on Cumberland St.PHOTO: STEPHEN JAQUIERYFarmlands is proposing to shift its Dunedin business to Christchurch, putting 100 jobs here at risk. "Under the current proposal, similar roles are proposed to be available for staff at our Christchurch support office and limited roles would remain in Dunedin. "It is not proposed that all roles would move to Christchurch.”A source close to Farmlands said staff were upset about the proposal. The Dunedin Farmlands retail store in Cumberland St would remain open under the proposal, Mr Reidie said. North Island-based Farmlands Trading Society Ltd merged with South Island-based CRT Co-operative in 2013 to become the one Farmlands co-operative.
