Lakeland Dairies farmers are the owners of our business, grounded by generations of deep farming knowledge. We have a network of 3,200 family farms spread throughout 17 counties in the northern half of the island of Ireland, the dairy heartland of Europe.
Milk Suppliers
With a rich tradition spanning nearly 130 years
This network is the backbone of our business. Our farmers dedicate their around-the-clock care and attention to detail to provide us with a continuous supply of fresh milk throughout the year. This means we’re able to guarantee our customers complete security of supply regardless of the time of year or market demands.
The land is what our business is built on. We only partner with farmers who share the same commitment to sustainability as we do. It’s our joint mission to protect and preserve the land we tend. Water usage, energy usage and waste management on farms are carefully monitored. Audits are also carried out to monitor environmental performance at farm level. This is supported through Bord Bia’s ‘Sustainable Dairy Assurance Scheme’ and other programmes that drive continual improvement.
