Campina Langlekker halfvolle melk

Campina is a historic dairy brand with roots dating back to 1871 in the Netherlands. The brand name is derived from the 'Campine' or 'Kempen' region, a geographical area covering parts of the Netherlands and Belgium. It has grown from a local cooperative into a major international dairy name known for high-quality milk, yogurt, and cheese products.

Currently, Campina is owned by FrieslandCampina, one of the world's largest dairy cooperatives. Formed by the merger of Friesland Foods and Campina in 2008, the company is owned by thousands of member dairy farmers across the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium. This cooperative structure ensures that the profits and governance remain largely within the hands of the dairy farmers themselves. While the primary milk sourcing and production occur in the Netherlands to serve the Dutch market, the parent company operates processing plants throughout Europe.
