Müller is a prominent German dairy brand with a history dating back to 1896, when Ludwig Müller founded a small village dairy in Aretsried, Bavaria. Over the decades, the company transformed from a regional operation into a global dairy powerhouse under the leadership of Theo Müller, the founder's grandson, who took control in 1971.
Müller is most famous for its 'Müller Corner' yogurts, chilled desserts, and milk-based drinks. While the brand is German by origin, its manufacturing is decentralized to ensure freshness. For instance, products sold in the United Kingdom are produced at major facilities in Shropshire using British milk, while German and central European markets are supplied from large plants like the one in Leppersdorf, Germany.
Ultimately, the brand remains 100% privately owned by the Müller family through the Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller. The group has grown through significant acquisitions, such as Robert Wiseman Dairies and Dairy Crest's milk business in the UK, making it one of the largest family-run dairy conglomerates in the world. As of 2026, the group continues to expand its portfolio and invest in high-tech production facilities across Europe.
