Our Passion

There is only one word to describe our farmers - Passionate. They are passionate about their environment, their land, their cows, and of course the superior product they produce. They know they are producing a healthy, natural product that will provide premium nutrition to boost the wellbeing of consumers of all ages, so they work tirelessly to achieve the very best results season after season.

Here at AwaRua® we share this passion. We have long-term contracts with our farmers, and we are all committed to providing continuous milk supply. Our state-of-the-art factories are located close to our farms ensuring the milk is collected and processed within hours of milking.
AwaRua® is proudly owned by Open Country Dairy, New Zealand’s largest independent milk processor, and the second largest exporter of whole milk powders in the world. We are the present and the future of grass fed milk powder, and we are totally committed to excellence and innovation.
