Yeo Valley Organic Yogurt

Yeo Valley is a prominent British dairy brand known for its commitment to organic farming and sustainable food production. Founded in 1994 by the Mead family, the brand grew from a small family farm in Blagdon, Somerset, into the UK's largest organic dairy company. The company prides itself on using British organic milk to create a variety of dairy products including yogurt, kefir, milk, and butter.

Manufacturing remains deeply rooted in its original location, with the majority of production occurring at its sites in the West Country of England. The brand is famous for its 'Yeokens' reward scheme and its focus on regenerative farming practices. While the brand has expanded its reach across major UK retailers, it maintains a strong identity centered on its Somerset heritage.

Ownership of the brand is currently split in a unique partnership. While the Mead family retains ownership of the Yeo Valley farms and the brand name itself, the manufacturing and distribution of Yeo Valley Organic dairy products were licensed to Arla Foods in 2018. This strategic partnership allows the brand to leverage Arla's massive distribution network while maintaining the brand's organic and family-led values.
