About
Fonterra is the world's largest dairy exporter and New Zealand's biggest company, owned by around 9,000 New Zealand dairy farming families. Formed in 2001 from the merger of the country's two largest dairy cooperatives, Fonterra processes more than 12 billion litres of milk annually from farms across New Zealand, Australia and Latin America. The company produces a vast portfolio of dairy ingredients including milk powders, casein, butter, cheese, cream cheese and nutritional powders, sold under brands such as Anchor, Anmum and NZMP. Its research and development arm, the Fonterra Research and Development Centre in Palmerston North, is one of the world's leading dairy science facilities, driving innovations in infant nutrition, sports nutrition and cheese technology. For B2B buyers, Fonterra's NZMP ingredient business is a trusted global supplier of dairy ingredients to food and beverage manufacturers, infant formula producers and pharmaceutical companies in more than 100 countries. Its co-operative structure, rigorous food-safety systems and grass-fed supply chain make it a benchmark supplier in the global dairy trade.
