Pohjolan Meijeri Rasvaton Maito

Pohjolan Meijeri is a private label brand primarily associated with the German retail giant Lidl for its operations in Finland. The name, which translates to 'Dairy of the North,' emphasizes the local sourcing of the product. This specific milk is a fat-free variety ('rasvaton maito') and features icons indicating its Finnish origin and animal welfare standards.

While the brand is owned from a corporate level by Lidl Stiftung & Co. KG in Germany, the production of Pohjolan Meijeri milk is strictly local to Finland. It is manufactured by Finnish dairy cooperatives, such as Maitokolmio or Valio, under contract for Lidl. This ensures that the product meets Finnish consumer preferences for fresh, domestically produced dairy while operating under the supply chain of an international retailer.
