Our Co-operative

Te Mātāpuna toa takitini

Fonterra's strength is in the collective
We are a Co-operative created and owned by Aotearoa New Zealand dairy farmers.

Our rich history is built on farming families working together to share the natural goodness of our dairy with the world.

Collaboration, innovation, and passion was the cornerstone of our creation and something we continue to value today through our commitment to care for the land, our animals, and every drop of milk.

Our milk creates goodness through nutritious food with safe, quality ingredients that are loved here in New Zealand and around the world.


About Farm Source
We love kiwi dairy farmers and think they're pretty awesome.

For generations they have relied on hard work, ingenuity, and each other, to create the kind of goodness that fuels our families, connects our communities and supports our economy.

At Farm Source, our team is driven by the same co-operative spirit that our farmers and their communities share.

We make farming easier so farmers can continue to concentrate on what they do best - producing high quality New Zealand milk in the most sustainable way.

This means growing and supporting the right people - people with plenty of roll-your-sleeves up energy to rise to the challenge.

Whether you're on the farm getting your gumboots dirty or connecting over a coffee at our local stores, you'll be getting the mahi done as part of a trusted team - backed by good people, the right products, innovative solutions, and industry-leading expertise.

So why not join us? Our regional structure and openness to flexible working means that there really is something for everyone.

No matter your age or stage, our inclusive culture has created a place where everyone can thrive
