Dairy Farmers is one of Australia’s most iconic and storied dairy brands, representing a rich legacy that began in 1890 with a cooperative of local farmers in New South Wales. For over a century, the brand has been a staple in Australian households, known for providing fresh milk, yogurt, and other dairy products sourced from domestic farms.

Today, the brand exemplifies the global nature of the modern food industry. While it maintains its deep Australian roots and continues to source its milk from local dairy farms across the country, its corporate ownership has transitioned through several hands. Since 2020, Dairy Farmers has been owned by Bega Cheese Limited (now known as Bega Group), an ASX-listed Australian company. This acquisition returned the brand to Australian ownership after a period under the control of multinational entities.

The manufacturing process remains strictly centered in Australia, utilizing a vast network of processing facilities to ensure that the produce remains fresh from farm to fridge. The brand's identity is synonymous with Australian agriculture, and its ownership by Bega Group ensures that its strategic direction and profits remain headquartered within Australia.
