Tamar Valley Dairy Yogurt

Tamar Valley Dairy is a prominent Australian dairy brand that originated in the Tamar Valley region of Tasmania. The brand was established by the Thompson family in 1996, eventually growing from a local provider into a major national label known for its Greek-style and creamy pot-set yogurts. The brand leverages its Tasmanian heritage, emphasizing the quality of milk sourced from pastures in the island state.

In 2009, the business faced financial difficulties and was placed into voluntary administration before being acquired by the French dairy giant Lactalis (then operating as Parmalat in Australia). Today, the brand is part of the Lactalis Australia portfolio. While its heart remains in Tasmania, the manufacturing process is managed under the extensive supply chain of one of the world's largest dairy corporations.

Lactalis, headquartered in Laval, France, is the ultimate owner of the brand. This ownership provides Tamar Valley Dairy with significant distribution power across Oceania. Despite the global ownership, the brand maintains its identity as a premium Tasmanian product, often highlighting its roots in the lush landscapes of Northern Tasmania.
