Why DFMC?

Strength Through Stability

Why DFMC?

The underlying principles of a co-operative are more inclusive than a private company. As a member, you share in the dividends and have a real seat at the table. You have the opportunity to become a ward representative or stand for a seat on the DFMC Board.

Our core purpose is to look after our farmers by providing value and security.

DFMC is passionate about a sustainable and thriving Australian dairy industry. It advocates best farm practice and adheres to all professional and farming codes and regulations.

Looking for a dairy supply company with a difference?

As a dairy farmer, you’re proud of the quality raw milk you produce. It’s important to you to get a competitive price for your milk and to have the option to grow your supply. DFMC offers you guaranteed milk off-take for all your milk and the pricing flexibility you need, so that you can plan for your future.

Farmer-owned, farmer-run

DFMC is farmer-owned and farmer-run. Born out of the 100-year-old legacy of Dairy Farmers, we are a true farmer co-operative that works to maximise the value of the quality raw milk produced by our farmers.

Returning competitive prices at the farmgate

Our dedicated staff and our farmer elected Board Members work hard to secure competitive milk pricing and commercial terms at the farmgate. As a member, you share in the dividends, and have a real seat at the table.

Guaranteed milk off-take for all your milk

We have an exclusive long-term agreement with one of the biggest dairy players in Australia – Bega Dairy & Drinks – and our raw milk goes into Bega’s dairy products. This guarantees milk off-take for all your milk for the length of your contract.
