The Geelong Dairy Milk was recently launched by the Kyabram based group to supply milk to supermarkets in the Geelong and Surf coast region.
Geelong Dairy is a collaboration between Kyvalley Dairy Group and it’s branding arm, The Remarkable Milk Company.
Kyvalley Dairy Group is the owner and operator of the North Geelong factory and is a Mulcahy family-owned Australian business that is over 160 years old in the Australian Dairy industry.
The Geelong Dairy milk is sourced from the Western District and bottled in North Geelong at the Kyvalley Dairy Group factory, providing a truly local product that is helping create employment in the Geelong region and provides the community with a quality dairy product at competitive pricing.
Remarkable Milk Company chief executive officer Alastair McCredden said the brand had been in development for more than 12 months.
“We are a family owned dairy business that has been operating in regional communities for over 160 years. We see the Geelong Dairy brand, that is processed and packed by our passionate team in Geelong, as a real opportunity to connect with the Geelong region,” he said.
“Strategically the factory is a really important asset to the business, one we hope to see thrive, expand and offer an exciting new career choice to the workers of Geelong, all while bringing quality local products to market.”
In August last year, the Remarkable Milk entered into a contract to acquire the assets of Organic Dairy Farmers of Australia.
The purchase included the land, processing facility and all brands and trademarks.
Organic Dairy Farmers of Australia (ODFA) were placed into administration and then subsequent receivership in May 2020.
Remarkable Milk Company were one of ODFA’s major customers and also had licence agreements for their True Organic and Remarkable range of products.
