Westpac expands community banking with new vans and extended branch hours
Westpac NZ has announced new initiatives that aim to give customers more options to do their banking in person.
Overall prices were down 0.1%, while key whole milk powder (WMP) prices were up 0.1%.
Looking at January as a whole, dairy prices have started 2023 on a soft note.
Westpac senior agri economist Nathan Penny nots that cumulatively over the month, overall and WMP prices have fallen 2.8% and 1.2% respectively.
"By product, most price movements were also small," he says.
"Of the five products we monitor, four products posted price changes of less than 1% either way.
"The outlier was cheddar, which saw a 4% price lift overnight. This result was largely in line with futures market expectations."
