As a globally traded commodity, the business of milk can be a volatile one.
Over the past dozen years, the price of milk has fallen and risen as far as 60% of the period's mean price, with supply and demand affected by global events. It’s at these times that proving it matters most.
Thanks to you, our farmers, the scale of our co-op affords us all the agility and resources to minimise the adverse effects of volatility.

What matters more than ever – to you, and to us – is stability and certainty.

That's why we'd like to talk with you, face to face, about taking a long term view to improving your position, and specifically about meeting your own objectives, today and tomorrow.
It’s one thing to say we’re leading the way, together – it’s another to prove it.
