Our company

We are the UK's only major dairy company, 100% owned by British farmers.  We suppply a wide range of dairy products and ingredients for both the national and international markets including soft cheeses, block cheeses, raw milk, butter and WMP.

At First Milk, we focus our business strategy on five strategic drivers.  If an activity does not fit within one of these areas, we don't do it. 

Our strategic drivers are:

  • Driving cash for our farmers 
  • Growing our brands
  • Diversifying our product and customer base
  • Lowering our cost to serve
  • Seeking value in partnerships. 

Following these drivers has seen our business strengthen significantly over the last few years. We have grown our brands, expanded our product and customer spread, restructured our cost base, and developed partnerships with national and international partners.
