Processing
In New Zealand, Fonterra owns over 26 manufacturing sites where NZMP ingredients are made. We have an uncompromising approach when it comes to food safety and quality, conducting extensive testing throughout the manufacturing process and on the finished product.
Shipping and Logistics
Around 2.5million metric tonnes of NZMP ingredients are exported from New Zealand every year. Before export our shipping containers are cleaned and inspected, once filled the containers are sealed to ensure the products remain safe on the way to their destination.
The safety of our NZMP ingredients start on a farm home to one of the thousands of Fonterra farming families. Our farmers have uncomprimising standards when it comes to ensuring the safety and quality of their milk.
