Farmers Union Greek Style Yogurt is a staple in the Australian dairy market, known for its thick and creamy texture. The brand's history is deeply rooted in South Australia, where the South Australian Farmers' Co-operative Union was founded in 1888. Over more than a century, it has become one of Australia's most recognized yogurt brands, emphasizing simple, natural ingredients and traditional straining methods.
The product's manufacturing is centered in Australia, utilizing locally sourced milk to maintain freshness and quality. The packaging features the Australasian Recycling Label (ARL), which is a common indicator of products intended for the Australian and New Zealand markets. While originally a local farmer-owned cooperative, the brand has transitioned through various corporate ownerships over the years.
Currently, Farmers Union is owned by Bega Cheese Limited (operating as Bega Group), an iconic Australian dairy company. Bega acquired the brand as part of its acquisition of Lion Dairy & Drinks from Kirin Holdings in early 2021. This move returned the brand to majority Australian ownership, as Bega Group is headquartered in Bega, New South Wales, and is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.
