Dairygold
Dairygold is a leading agri-business in Ireland, specializing in the production and distribution of dairy products and agricultural supplies. It is a farmer-owned cooperative, with a history dating back to 1908.
History[edit | edit source]
Dairygold was formed in 1990 through the merger of two established Irish dairy cooperatives, Ballyclough Creamery and Mitchelstown Creamery. Both of these cooperatives had a long history in the Irish dairy industry, with Ballyclough Creamery established in 1908 and Mitchelstown Creamery in 1919.
Operations[edit | edit source]
Dairygold operates across two main divisions: Dairy and Agri. The Dairy division is responsible for the production of a wide range of dairy products, including milk, cheese, butter, and yogurt. The Agri division provides a range of agricultural supplies and services to farmers, including animal feed, fertilizer, and farm machinery.
Dairygold's operations are primarily based in Ireland, but the cooperative also has a significant international presence. It exports its dairy products to over 50 countries worldwide, and has a number of overseas operations, including in the UK, Germany, and Spain.
Products[edit | edit source]
Dairygold's product range includes a variety of dairy products, such as milk, cheese, butter, and yogurt. These products are sold under the Dairygold brand, as well as under a number of other brands owned by the cooperative. Dairygold also produces a range of infant formula products, which are sold in markets around the world.
In addition to its dairy products, Dairygold also offers a range of agricultural supplies and services. These include animal feed, fertilizer, and farm machinery, as well as advice and support for farmers.
Governance[edit | edit source]
As a cooperative, Dairygold is owned by its farmer members, who elect a board of directors to oversee the cooperative's operations. The board is responsible for setting Dairygold's strategic direction and ensuring that the cooperative operates in the best interests of its members.
