There was no delivery of pigs to Karro Foods in Cookstown on Saturday.

It was due to an animal rights activist protest outside the factory.

The group Direct Action Everywhere was behind the staging of the demonstration.

In a statement, Karro said it was a planned day of no production at the factory.

The animal rights group says it has won a ‘small battle.’
