<strong>Fonterra</strong>’s<br />

CO-operative<br />

STRUCTURE<br />

underpins its<br />

ACCESS to qUAlity<br />

milk supply.<br />

In the 2011 / 2012 Season, <strong>Fonterra</strong><br />

collected approximately 89% of<br />

New Zeal<strong>and</strong>’s milk from around<br />

10,500 Farmer Shareholders who<br />

are among the most cost-efficient<br />

dairy producers in the world.<br />

Farmers have a substantial financial<br />

stake in <strong>Fonterra</strong> through the link<br />

between milk supply <strong>and</strong><br />

ownership. This promotes a strong<br />

connection to the Co-operative <strong>and</strong><br />

a secure supply of quality milk.<br />

The milk price paid to Farmer<br />

Shareholders is linked to the prices<br />

of globally-traded dairy products in<br />

a transparent manner, <strong>and</strong> takes<br />

into account a return on investment<br />

in efficient processing assets.<br />
