a2 Milk Full Cream Premium Instant Milk Powder

Brand Origin and Overview

The a2 Milk Company was founded in New Zealand in 2000 by Dr. Corran McLachlan and Howard Paterson. The company was built around the discovery that cows naturally produce milk containing either A1 or A2 beta-casein proteins (or a combination of both), and that milk containing exclusively the A2 beta-casein type may be easier to digest for certain individuals.

Ownership

The brand is owned by The a2 Milk Company Limited, a dual-listed public company traded on both the New Zealand Exchange (NZX) and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), with its corporate headquarters located in Auckland, New Zealand. In Australia, the business operates via its regional operating entity, The a2 Milk Company (Australia) Pty Ltd.

Manufacturing and Sourcing

While fresh a2 Milk sold in Australian grocery stores is sourced from local Australian dairy herds, a2 Milk Full Cream Premium Instant Milk Powder is primarily manufactured and packed in New Zealand using premium New Zealand dairy milk, as indicated by the country of origin certification on the packaging.
