Key Players in the Global Dairy Industry (4th Edition)

Leatherhead Food International, June 2006

The major recent trend in the dairy industry is that the larger firms have become even larger and levels of acquisition in the industry remain high. The 34 companies profiled completed 22 merger and acquisition deals in 2003, 19 in 2004, 16 in 2005 and 7 to date in 2006.

Most of these deals involved cross-border purchases and internationalisation remains a key focus for most of the world’s leading dairy firms. All of the world’s largest dairy firms operate in more than one country and some of them are truly international with activities in every part of the world.

At the same time, brands are also becoming more international, with many companies having worked to reorganise their product ranges in recent times in order to reduce the number of their brands and ensure that their strongest lines are available on a multinational level.

With regard to NPD among the world’s dairy leaders, key trends include the greater provision of value-added dairy products in place of commodities, often via the introduction of healthy ingredients or more convenient formats.

This new report summarises overall trends in the international dairy industry before providing detailed profiles of the top 34 dairy companies in the world.
