Darigold supplies a range of dairy products into around 20 markets and sees that growing to “40 or more countries in the near future”.
More than 40% of Darigold’s farm milk production goes into export products and the company expects that to “surpass 50% in the coming years”, it added, again without providing a time-frame.
“We are excited to expand with new in-house international capabilities and better serve our customers worldwide through a direct network,” Stan Ryan, the president and CEO of the Seattle-based Darigold, said. “With an expanded global team, Darigold can fully realise the potential of providing north-west dairy products’ unique sustainability, quality, nutrition and taste to the world.”
