Donegal Creameries is a historic dairy brand deeply rooted in the agricultural landscape of County Donegal, Ireland. It was established originally as a cooperative by local farmers in 1899 to manage and sell their milk collectively. Over more than a century, it became one of the most recognizable milk brands in the north-west of Ireland, known for its "Bainne Úr" (fresh milk) and its mascot Daisy the Cow.

In modern years, the brand transitioned from being a standalone cooperative to part of a larger corporate structure. In 2011, the dairy processing business of Donegal Creameries was acquired by Connacht Gold, which later rebranded the entire group as Aurivo. Today, the milk is still produced using milk from local farms in the region, maintaining its heritage while benefiting from the scale of a major Irish dairy conglomerate.
