Our Company
Our co-operative was founded over 110 years ago, with a bold vision to produce premium dairy products
Tatua is located in Tatuanui, Waikato - the heart of New Zealand's prime dairying region.
New Zealand’s climate, soil, and abundant rainfall create the perfect environment for growing grass. Our herds enjoy natural pasture 365 days a year, promoting cows’ natural behaviours in a safe, open environment.
As a local dairy co-operative, we are owned by dairy farming families who surround our manufacturing site. This ensures our supply chain is invested in our products and upholds the principles New Zealand dairy is known for – care, integrity, and ingenuity.
