Müller is a prominent German dairy brand with a history dating back to 1896, when Ludwig Müller founded a small village dairy in Aretsried, Bavaria. The company remained a local enterprise until 1971, when the founder's grandson, Theo Müller, took control and transformed it into a national and eventually international powerhouse. Expansion began significantly in the 1980s, notably entering the UK market in 1987, where it has since become one of the most recognizable dairy brands known for products like 'Müller Corner' and 'Müller Rice'.

Today, the brand operates as part of the Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller (Müller Group), which remains 100% family-owned. While the group's administrative headquarters are located in Luxembourg to manage its vast international interests, the brand's heritage remains firmly rooted in Germany. Manufacturing is decentralized to ensure product freshness; for instance, products sold in Germany are produced at major sites like Leppersdorf and Aretsried, while the UK market is supplied by a network of British dairies. This strategy has established Müller as one of the largest privately held dairy processors in Europe.
